His mother had been sad in recent days, not sick，just strangely sad. The lion had just lain down beside him，his head warm on Bertie，s feet， when Father cleared his throat and began, “Youll soon be eight, Bertie. A boy needs a proper education. Weve found the right place for you, a school near Salisbury in England. ”His heart filled with a terrible fear, all Bertie could think of was his white lion. “But the lion,” he cried, “What about the lion?”“Im afraid theres something else I have to tell you, ” his father said. Looking across at Berties mother, he took a deep breath. Then he told Bertie he had met a circus owner from France, who was over in Africa looking for lions to buy. He would come to their farm in a few days.“No! You cant send him to a circus!” said Bertie. “People will come to see him. Hell be shut up behind bars. I promised him he never would be. And they will laugh at him. Hed rather die. Any animal would ! ” But as he looked across the table at them, he knew their minds were quite made up.Bertie felt completely betrayed. He waited until he heard his fathers deep breathing next door. With his white lion at his heels，he crept downstairs in his pyjamas ，took down his fathers rifle from the rack and stepped out into the night. He ran and ran till his legs could run no more. As the sun came up over the grassland, he climbed to the top of a hill and sat down, his arms round the lions neck. The time had come.“Be wild now”，he whispered. “Youve got to be wild. Dont ever come home. All my life Ill think of you. I promise I will. ” He buried his head in the Iion5S neck. Then, Bertie clambered down the hill and walked away.When he looked back, the lion was still sitting there watching him; but then he stood up, yawned, stretched, and sprang down after him. Bertie shouted at him, but he kept coming. He threw sticks. He threw stones. Nothing worked.There was only one thing left to do. With tears filling his eyes and his mouth，he lifted the rifle to his shoulder and fired over the Iion9S head.56.Berties mother was sad probably because she _.A.had been seriously ill recently B. had decided to send Bertie to schoolC.knew selling the lion would upset Bertie D.knew Bertie would hate to go to England57.The underlined word “they” in Para. 4 probably refers to _.A. some audience B. other animals C. Berties parents D. circus owners58.In the last paragraph, the boy lifted the rifle to _.A.kill the lion out of fearB. threaten the lion back to the wildC.protect himself from the lionD. show his anger towards his father59.The passage intends to show that _.A.animal-hunting is popular in AfricaB.parents are sometimes cruel to their childrenC.animals usually lead a miserable life in circusesD. people and animals can be faithful to each otherB Latest research shows that yawning helps in keeping the brain cool, which is quite different from the popular belief that yawning promotes sleep and is a sign of tiredness. Yawning involves opening the mouth while taking a long, deep breath of air. It is commonly believed that people yawn as a result of being sleepy or tired because they need oxygen. However, researchers at the University of Albany in New York said their experiments on 44 students showed that drawing in air helps cool the brain and helps it work more effectively. They said that their experiments showed that raising or lowering oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the blood did not produce that reaction.Study participants were shown videos of people laughing and yawning, and researchers counted how many times the volunteers responded to their own “contagious(传染性的) yawns,” reported the online edition of BBC News. The researchers found that those who breathed through the nose rather than the mouth were less likely to yawn when watching a video of other people yawning. This was because the blood vessels（脉管）in the nasal cavity sent cool blood to the brain.The same effect was found among those who held a cool pack to their forehead, whereas those who held a warm or room-temperature pack yawned while watching the video.“Since yawning occurs when brain temperature rises, sending cool blood to the brain serves to maintain the best levels of mental efficiency,” the authors wrote in the journal Evolutionary Psychology.60. According to the new study, people yawn when _. A. they are sleepy or tired B. they need more oxygen C. their brain temperature rises D. oxygen levels in the blood is lowered61. Which of the following statements about the new study is NOT true? A. Yawning can promote sleep. B. The study was carried out by researchers at the University of Albany. C. Yawning can making our brain work more efficiently. D. Yawning can maintain the best levels of mental efficiency.62. The underlined phrase “the volunteers ”probably refers to _. A. study participants B. people laughing and yawning C. researchers D. videos63. In which section of a newspaper can you read this passage? _. A. Science and technology B. Health C. Entertainment D. Culture.CDoctors sometimes prescribe light therapy to treat a form of depression in people who get too little morning sun. But too much light at other times may actually cause such mood disorders. Long-lasting exposure to light at night brings depression, a new study finds, at least in animals.The new data confirm observations from studies of people who work night shifts, says Richard Stevens of the University of Connecticut Health Center. Mood disorders join a growing list of problems, including cancer, obesity and diabetesthat can occur when light throws life out of balance by disturbing the biological clock and its timing of daily rhythms.In the new study, Tracy Bedrosian and Randy Nelson of Ohio State University exposed mice to normal light and dark cycles for four weeks. For the next four weeks, half of the mice remained on this schedule, and the r
