A thirsty crow (乌鸦)comes across(偶然遇到) a bottle of water, but the water level is out of its reach. The bird then drops some stones into it and gets the water.
“It’s just a story,” you may think. But new research has found that crows’ brains may sometimes be better than those of 6-year-old children.
In a recent experiment, American scientist Corina Logan and her team caught six crows to test them. The crows and children had to choose between two sets of tubes(试管). They had to drop stones in and get water.
With the red set, when they dropped a stone into a wide tube, the water level raised in a connected narrow tube. The blue set of tubes, however, had no connection between them.
Children aged 7 to 10 were able to learn the rule. Children aged 4-6, however, failed.Five of the six crows failed the test. But Kitty, a 6-month-old crow, passed it. She put most of the stones into the red tubes.
So, could a bird be more clever than a kindergartner? Don’t be too quick to say no.
The first paragraph is ______ about crows.
A. a piece of news      B. a story                   C. a truth
_____ failed the test?
A. Kitty
B. Children aged 7 to 10
C. Children aged 4 to 6
From the text, we know crows’ brains may ______ be better than those of 6-year-old children.
A. sometimes          B. always                   C. never
How many crows did the team do the experiment on?
A. 5                 B. 6                        C. 7
What does the underlined word kindergartner mean?
A. 幼儿园小朋友    B. 幼儿园教师  C. 幼儿园

Honesty of American students
When I first arrived in America,I was surprised by the honesty of my classmates.Over my first month at school,I didn’t see or hear anyone cheating.I found two reasons for this.
First,if any student cheats,he or she will get punished.My school has a rule called the Honor Code.It asks students not to steal,lie or cheat.If someone goes against the code,he or she will have to leave the school.During my first year in the school,seven students left the school because of cheating.
Second,American students don’t care about scores as much as Chinese students do.They know that colleges will look at their all-round abilities instead of only scores.So they have fewer reasons to cheat.
The writer didn’t see or hear anyone cheating when she first arrived in America, did she?
 
What is the Honor Code about?
 
What will happen if students go against the code?
 
Who does the writer think care more about scores, American students or Chinese students?
 
Do American colleges think all-round abilities are important for students?
