Hungry, you just need to point to your own stomach and theyll lead you to the nearest restaurant. Thirsty, the monkeys will lead you to a bar. Tired, you put both of your hands behind your head and the monkeys will take you to the nearest hotel. Dont feel surprised when they put out their hairy hands to you after the service is done. They are just asking for a little money as a tip. After that, they will wave their hands as if they are saying goodbye to you.Believe it or not, these monkeys are from the school for monkeys in India, where they were trained for one year. They are not the only monkey students in the world. Some are being trained as nurses in an American medical college. These monkeys are about to look after patients and help them with their housework.A three-year-old monkey named Helen has learned to turn on TV, turn off lights, and open doors and windows when she is told to. Once the job is done, she will rush to her master, hoping to get some food as a reward.51. When youre thirsty, the monkey will lead you to _. A. a barB. a hotelC. a restaurantD. a shop52.

Funny MonkeysC. Special NursesD. Good Helpers C Why are first ladies so important in the United States? They are unpaid and have no official work? There are several reasons, but the most important reason is they are role models for other women in the United States.Jacqueline Kennedy, wife of American President John F. Kennedy, was the best first lady in the USA. Although she wasnt an actress, model or singer, she was a fashion and cultural icon who charmed people wherever she went.If you are looking for someone who is as charming as Jacqueline Kennedy, it will be hard to find anyone more suitable than Peng Liyuan, wife of Chinese President Xi Jinping. If you were writing a novel and trying to describe the perfect mixture of personal history, confident lady for a character, youd come up with someone like Peng.Born into a family in Shandong province in 1962, she joined the Peoples Liberation Army at the age of 18, doing pretty well in singing military(军旅) songs. But she is not only famous for her voice and great achievements, but also for her charity efforts. She has, among other things, worked as a member of World Health Organization to fight against AIDS, and has done much for 2008 Sichuan earthquake.The media reported Pengs trip with her husband. This was Xis first foreign trip as president and the first time that Chinas first lady appeared like a modern woman on Peng Liyuans first official state visit. The trip shows that she can be a role model for Chinese women, especially young Chinese women at home and abroad. In the past, China has not had a tradition of first ladies like in the USA. As China has a higher position on the world stage, it can have its first lady! And Peng Liyuan is the perfect person with whom to begin.56. First ladies are important in the USA because _.

Peng Liyuan worked for World Health Organization against flu.DIn China, many people are leaving the countryside to find jobs in the cities, because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isnt much work there. Services such as hospital and transport are usually much better in the city than in the countryside. They hope that their lives will improve when they move to the city. But in the big cities of Europe like London or Paris, people are moving out of the city. These rich families want to live a quieter life. They are tired of the noise and the dirt of the city, and they are tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses. They dont want to live in the cities any more. They want a house with a garden in the countryside, and breathe the fresh air there. So they move out of the cities. Some dont go very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities. Other people move to the real countryside with sheep, cows and green fields. There, they start new lives and try to make new friends. After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake. They dont make so much money and there isnt much work to do. People in the countryside are very different and arent always very friendly. So quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city. “Its wonderful to see crowds in the streets and cinema lights.” they say.61. Which is NOT the reason for pe
