The Building That Moves
Everyone knows that buildings don't move.They can't change the way they look.However,architect(建筑师)David Fisher wants to change that.
Fisher has an amazing idea.He wants to make 80﹣story buildings that change shape.Each floor will move around slowly.The floors will move at different speeds.Because of this,the shape of the building is always changing."These buildings will never look the same,"says Fisher.
His idea is an interesting one.However,Fisher doesn't stop there.He also wants the building to be"green".The building will make its own energy.In most buildings,only the top floor has a roof(屋顶).In Fisher's building,each floor will have its own roof.The roofs each have solar panels(太阳能板).This means a lot more solar energy.Also,machines between each floor of the building will catch the wind.They will turn the wind into energy.
Fisher's ideas sound impossible.However,that's what people also said before humans traveled into space!
16.The passage is mainly talking about .
A.buildings for the future
B.the life of an architect
C.how green buildings work
17.The underlined word"80﹣story"means the building has 80 .

18.Fisher's building can make its own energy because the building .

B.is tall and has many solar panels
C.is always moving and has many solar panels
19.The Fisher's building will NOT get energy from .
A.the sun
B.the water
C.the wind
20.Why does the writer say"that's what people also said before humans traveled into space"? _
A.To show why Fisher's building will never work.
B.To show why Fisher's building is like a spaceship.
C.To show that unusual ideas can sometimes work.
Move as Millions,Survive as One
Great white sharks in the Pacific Ocean.Wildebeest in Africa.Arctic terns in the Atlantic.At first,these animals seem completely different.One swims,one walks,and the other flies.But they all have one thing in common.They all migrate.
Some migrating groups move to a place with a better temperature.Some go to find food or wather.The groups travel as one,trying to survive(生存).During the trip,they face many different challenges.One challenge is distance.Some migrating animals take very long trips.They go far away from their home areas.For example,one great white shark swam from Australia to South African and back.In nine months,it swam about 20,000 kilometers.
Another chanllenge is finding enough food and water during the journey.For example,each Malielephant needs over 200 liters of water each day.To get this,they need to go from one waterhole to another.
In addition,migrating animals have to avoid other animals that want to eat them.For example,the zebra has to stay away from lions.Traveling as a group helps keep them safe.All the zebras in the group can watch for danger.When one zebra is in trouble,the other members make a circle around it.

The Mermaid Balloon
"Mum!"little Desiree said,"It's my daddy's birthday.How will I send him a birthday card?"Her mother looked at her and sighed.She didn't know what to say.Desiree's father had died nine months earler.Desiree didn't understand.She was only four years old.
"I have an idea,"her mother said."Let's write your daddy a letter.We can tie the letter to a balloon and send it up to heaven(天堂).What should we write?"
Desiree told her mother to write,"Happy Birthday,Daddy.I love you and miss you.Please write me on my birthday in January."
Desiree's mother wrote the message and their address on a small piece of paper.Then they went to a store to buy a balloon.Desiree looked quickly at the balloons and said,"That one!The one with the mermaid(美人鱼)!"
They bought the mermaid balloon and tied the letter to it.Then Desiree let the balloon go.
Desiree released the balloon in California.The wind caught the balloon and carried it east.Four days later,it came down 3,000 miles away,near a lake in eastern Canada.The name of the lake was Mermaid Lake.
Wade MacKinnon,a Canadian man,was hunting ducks at Mermaid Lake when he found Desiree's balloon and letter.He took them home to his wife.She decided to send Desiree a birthday present.She also wrote her a letter.The letter said:
Dear Desiree,
Happy Birthday from your daddy.I guess you wonder who we are.Well,my husband,Wode,went duck hunting,and guess what he found?A mermaid balloon that you sent your daddy.There are no stores in heaven,so your daddy wanted someone to do his shopping for him.I think he picked us because we live in a town called Mermaid.I know your daddy loves you very much and will always watch over you.
Lots of love,
The MacKinnons
Desiree's mother wrote the Mackinnons to thank them.During the next few weeks,she and the MacKinnons telephoned each other often.Then Desiree and her mother flew to Canada to meet the MacKinnons.The MacKinnons took them to Mermaid Lake and showed them where the balloon landed.
Now,whenever Desiree wants to talk about her father,she calls the MacKinnons.After she talks to them,she feels better.
People often say,"What a coincidence(巧合)﹣the mermaid balloon landed at Mermaid Lake!"Desiree's mother is not sure it was just a coincidence.She says,"I think that somehow my husband picked the MacKinnons.It was his way to send his love to Desiree.Desiree understands now that her father is with her always."

When I was a child,my parents often took me to a run﹣down house in a thick forest.No other children ever stayed there.I didn't even have the choice of playing with a brother or sister.
I could never(42) (understand)what the attraction of the house was,even for my parents,who enjoyed nothing better than to sit in silence with a good book.The woman in the house,my father's distant cousin,was a terrible cook.
One day,when I was hanging around the garden behind the house,I noticed a wooden house.It was clearly abandoned(废弃的)and(43) (hide)completely behind tall trees and huge grass.As I walked towards it,I heard a noise,like an animal moving hurriedly away.I was about tu turn away when I saw an old man(44) (stand)at the door.I was much scared.
"Please don't tell me you saw me,"he said."They never use this place,and I have nowhere else to live.""Don't worry,"I said."I(45) (not tell)anyone.But are you all right out here?I mean﹣do you have enough to eat?"
The old man(46) (shake)his head and said that he hadn't had a big meal for ages.I decided to put this right as soon as I could.The same evening,I took a small plastic bag into the dining room and,while no one was looking,I emptied some of the food into it.Later,I got out of the back door secretly and gave the food to the old man,whose name I had discovered was Taff.
I had never seen anything else as lovely as the smile on Taff's face when he (47) (eat)the food.From then on,my visits to the old house had a purpose,and I enjoyed every minute of the rest of my stay.
