British adventurer（冒险家） Alastair Humphreys had ridden his bike around the world, walked cross India, and rowed （划船）from Africa to South America. In 2011, however, Humphreys had some of the biggest adventurers of his life and he never even left the United Kingdom.
For a year, Humphreys went on microadventures—small, low-cost trips close to home. Why did he do this? “I started to think that it was possible to have an adventure anywhere.” He explains. For his first trip, he went hiking with a friend around the M25-a 188-kilometre road that goes all the way around London. Other adventures included swimming in the River Thames, sleeping outside on a hill, and going on a mountain biking trip. Humphreys learned something important from his microadventures: We find adventures when we try something new.
Humphreys wanted other people to make this discovery, too, so he decided to share his idea. He challenged people to go on microadventures and send him four-minute videos of their trips. He asked them to do things like climb a hill, go away for a weekend, or choose a random （任意的）place on a map and go there. People from all over the world accepted his challenge and posted their videos on Twitter.
63. Which of the following belong to microadventures? Check and choose the right answer.
① walk across India
② sleep outside on a hill
③ go away for a weekend
④ swim in the River Thames
⑤ row from Africa to South America
⑥hike around the road around London
A. ①③④⑤ B. ①④⑤⑥ C. ②③④⑥ D. ②③⑤⑥
64. What can we know about Humphreys’ personality according to the passage?
A. Brave, creative and active. B. Proud, humorous and kind.
C. Careful, quiet and hard-working. D. Confident, strict and warm-hearted.
65. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. A Big Challenge B. An Amazing Travel
C. Keep a Trip Record D. Go for a Microadventure

Today, by carefully choosing dog parents, humans have created many different kinds of dog. Each kind has its own look and talents and its own role within human society. Here are three examples of “a dog’s life” in the human world.
Today, many hospitals let specially trained dogs in to bring love and cheer to patients. Shaynee is a therapy（治疗）dog. She visits children who are in hospital. Dogs like Shaynee help patients feel calm and at peace which can be hard in a busy hospital. They help both children and adults stay strong during long hospital stays, and, some suggest, even help them get better.
Today some beagles（小猎犬）work in airports for the government. They are part of the program called the Beagle Brigade. A beagle is good for the work because of its powerful nose, and ability to follow smells. The Beagle Brigade’s job is to smell everything that comes into the country. They make officers notice illegal（非法的）fruits, vegetables, and other foods in luggage or in mail. The beagles do the job far better than any human could.
While some dogs are working hard, others are free to spend their days resting and playing. Across the world, many pet dogs are treated like children. Many have their own rooms and all the things a dog could want. Some even have their own clothes. Many of these pets spend their days playing, learning to follow or even going to classes. Their owners give them the best, and enjoy doing so.
Whether as workers or objects of affection（钟情）dogs have become helpful to humans in many ways. There are plenty of advantages for the dog, too. Many kinds of wild dogs have nearly disappeared from the Earth. However, the domestic dog’s special place as “man’s best friend has allowed it to survive （存活）in a human world.
66. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. Hospitals need many special dogs. B. Dogs can take care of patients.
C. Patients need love in the hospital. D. Doctors are too busy to see patients.
67. What does the underlined word “domestic” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Trained. B. Smart. C. Hungry. D. Valuable.
68. What’s the purpose of the passage?
A. To ask people to treat dogs as their own children.
B. To explain why humans need beagles in their work.
C. To tell people about the history of dogs’ development.
D. To show a good relationship between dogs and humans.
69. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
D
Eight hundred years ago, a man in southern Turkey invented an amazing clock. It was more than 7 meters high. At its base（基座）was a life-size model elephant. Every half hour, something amazing happened. The whole clock came alive: Model birds, dragons, and people started to move.
The clock’s inventor was an engineer named al-Jazari. He lived in Turkey. Al-Jazari was probably one of the greatest engineers in history. Some historians call him “the father of modern-day engineering.”

We know about al-Jazari mostly from a book that he wrote. ________ They include clocks and hand-washing machines. The book also has drawings that show how each machine works.
Many everyday things today-from toys to car engines（发动机）-still use al-Jazari’s ideas. Without his machines with moving parts we might not have modern-day robots.
Today, it is still possible to see what al-Jazari’s elephant cock looked like. A full-size working model is in Dubai’s Ibn Battuta Mall. There, every half hour, al-Jazari’s most amazing invention comes to life once again.
How Does the Elephant Clock Work?
