　　It’s very early in the morning and I’m sitting outside. It’s also very cold and dark. With me is Jim Nightingale，and he is the reason I’m up so early. He passes me a hot cup of coffee.“Not long to wait now,” He says. I hope he’s right.

　　After a few minutes there is a very weak light in the east，and then I hear a bird singing. It sings very loud and very clear.“That’s the robin(知更鸟),”says Jim. A few more birds start singing with the robin and Jim knows the names of them too. Half an hour later，there are more and more birds singing，and it’s very loud! Suddenly，all around us the air is full of the sound of birdsong. This is the dawn chorus(晨鸣)，and it’s beautiful.

　　“Wow，this is amazing!” I tell Jim，who is smiling.“Is there a dawn chorus every morning?”

　　“Birds can sing any time of the year but the best time is the end of winter and during the spring. This is when the birds sing most.”

　　“Really? So，why do they sing?” I ask.

　　“Well，there are two reasons,” explains Jim.“Most of the songbirds who sing are males. They want to find a female(雌性)so they sing to show how strong they are. The females listen and choose the best singer! The birds also sing to tell other males to go away. They need their own area; they don’t like sharing with another male.”

　　I listen to the birds; the songs seem too much to me. “Do the birds sing a special song in the morning?”

　　“That’s a good question,” replied Jim. “The successful birds have many kinds of calls and songs. Sometimes they copy the songs of other birds. This makes it sound like there are many birds in that place already and other males stay away. Also the female likes songs with different notes. Some birds，for example the European wren，have songs that contain over 700 different notes per minute!”

　　So，how does Jim know so much about birds? Well，he works as a volunteer for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. He is trying to help the birds live in the modern world.“More and more of the birds’habitat disappears every year. The sparrow，for example，was a very common bird in the UK; now it’s in danger.”

　　By now the sun is up and the birds are quiet. It’s light so they can start looking for food; they need a big breakfast after all that singing!

　　61. Why does the writer get up early in the morning?
　　A. To visit her friend. B. To drink hot coffee.
C. To see different birds. D. To hear birds sing.

　　62. When you hear a bird sing in the morning，it’s most probably .
　　A. a robin B. a sparrow
C. a male bird D. a female bird

　　63. A bird sings early in the morning mainly .
　　A. to call a female’s attention B. to fight with other males
　　C. to find a place to live in D. to start looking for food

　　64. According to the text，which of the following statements is true?
　　A. At first the writer is happy to be up so early in the morning.
　　B. Male birds have their own ways of fooling other birds.
　　C. It’s easier for the birds to find food early in the morning.
　　D. Jim has a job with the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds

　　65. The text is mainly about .

Legend has it that an apple which fell from its branches was the inspiration for Sir Isaac Newton’s discovery of gravity(引力). But now history’s famous fruit tree is paying the price of fame.
The thousands of visitors drawn to Sir Isaac’s childhood home each year could be damaging the tree. A willow barrier(围栏)has been put around the tree. It means visitors to the 17th century Woolsthorpe Manor, near Grantham, Lincolnshire, will no longer be able to sit under its branches as Newton was said to have been doing in 1665 when “the notion of gravitation came to mind.”
The National Trust, which owns the small manor(庄园)where Newton was born in 1642, said the 2ft-high barrier was designed to preserve the tree. Official Ann Moynihan said there had been no damage so far but warned that there could soon be a problem.“Visitor numbers have gone up by around 50 percent, to 33,000 a year in three years. The more people who visit, the more the earth will become compacted(压实) around the tree and over the roots. We just want to preserve the tree for another 400 years if we can.”She said visitors will still be able to take apples from the tree.
Visitor Chris Gwyther,37,said,“I suppose it is a pity that you can’t sit under the tree like Newton. But you can still see it and the tree is 400 years old, it needs saving for the future.”
Newton left no information saying he had been inspired by a falling apple. The story appeared in a book by French philosopher Voltaire published in 1727, the year Newton died at the age of 84.
51. Why do people go to Woolsthorpe Manor to see the apple tree?
A. Because of the story about the apple tree.
B. Because of the long history of the apple tree.
C. Because of the sweetness of the apple.
D. Because of the unusual flower of the apple tree.
52. What is the reason that people can’t sit under the tree like Newton?
A. The manor is too crowded to sit around.
B. Their heads will be hit by the apples.
C. A willow barrier has been put around the tree.
D. There is something wrong with the apple tree.
53. The underlined word preserve means “_____”.
A. keep something safe B. make something grow
C. l
