One day in the dead of winter, I looked out my back window and saw a chicken. It was jet-b

lack with a crimson wattle, and it seemed unaware that it was in New York City. In classic barnyard fashion, it was scratching, pecking and ducking.

I shrugged off the apparition. Birds come and go. Usually they're pigeons, not chickens, but like other birds, this one had wings and it would probably use them. Or so I thought.

The protagonist of this story is known simply as the chicken. How it came to a small backyard here, remains a matter of conjecture. The chicken made its first appearance next door, at the home of a multitude of cabdrivers from Bangladesh. My wife, Nancy, and I figured they had bought the chicken and were fattening it for a feast. That hypothesis fell into doubt when the chicken hopped the fence and began pacing the perimeter of our yard with a proprietary air.

Eating it was out of the question. As a restaurant critic and an animal lover, I subscribe to a policy of complete hypocrisy. Serve fish or fowl to me, but don't ask me to watch the killing. Once I meet it, I don't want to eat it.

Nancy and I next theorized that the chicken had escaped from a live-poultry market about four blocks away and was on the run. Our hearts went out to the brave little refugee. We had to save it.

People in the US honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day , on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day , on the third Sunday in June. Mother’s Day was proclaimed a day for national observance by President Woodrow Wilson in 1915. Ann Jarvis from Grafton ,West Virginia, had started the idea to have a day to honor mothers. She was the one who chose the second Sunday in May and also began the custom of wearing a carnation. In 1909, Mrs. Dodd from Spokane, Washington, thought of the idea of a day to honor fathers. She wanted to honor her own father, William Smart. After her mother died, he had the responsibility of raising a family of five sons and a daughter. In 1910, the first Father’s Day was observe in Spokane. Senator Margaret Chase Smith helped to establish Father’s Day as a national commemorative day, in 1972. These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these day families get together at home , as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Farther’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories. Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school . Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries, telephone companies, and other stores do a lot business during these holidays. Tell whether the following statements are true(T) or false(F)according to the text.

1.Mother’s Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day is on the second Sunday in June. ()

2.Mother’s Day was proclaimed a day for national observance by President Woodrow Wilson.()

听力原文: When Walter was eight years old, in 1908, he used to work for an old lady who lived in his village. Every day, before and after school, he would chop wood, light fires, and go shopping for her. He was paid 5 pence every week, which was not very much even then.

This old lady kept so many cats that she did not know exactly how many. One day, one of the cats was found dead in the garden, and the lady, who was very upset, asked Walter to dig a grave and bury it. Walter did this and was given 10 pence. He couldn't help noticing that he got twice as much for burying the cat as for a whole week's work. This made him think. He had many friends whose fathers, the local farmers, often had to shoot cats to protect their chickens. He offered his friends 2 pence for every dead cat they brought him. He would then place the cat in the old lady's garden where she would find it, think it was one of her own, and give Walter 10 pence for burying it.

By the time he left school, Walter had saved quite a lot of money. Later in life he became a very successful businessman.

Los Angeles cabinet-maker Edward Stewart may be a modern Dr. Frankenstein. In 1959, he cla
ims, he restored a dead friend to life with a simple technique. He opened the dead man's chest, rubbed his heart with a "secret, life-giving’plant juice, then stimulated the heartbeat with 110 volts of electricity. The friend, says Stewart, has been living in Hawaii ever since.

Stewart also claims his revivification technique works on the small animals he suffocates in jars in his garage. It takes three hours to revive a dead mouse, he reports, and five hours for a small dog. "Some-times, "he adds , "I buy those little chicken hearts in the super-market, and I make them beat again using my plant juice before I cook them for dinner."

According to Stewart, he discovered the plant juice one day while cutting hedges around his former home in Hawaii. Juice from one of the plants splattered onto his wrist, he says, and he suddenly noticed the skin begin to twitch. Nonetheless, he adds, he can't reveal the name of the plant. "When the juice is zapped with electricity, "he says, "it gives off a deadly gas."

To promote his idea, Stewart has spent the past decade sending his papers to the University of California, he Army, and a number of government agencies. One scientist who evaluated the concept was Lynn Eldridge, of the Jerry Lewis Neuromuscular Research Center, in Los Angeles. She says Stewart may not be joking. "The extracts from plant like belladonna are used to supply nutrients to human organs, which must be kept alive while traveling to a transplant. So Stewart might cut the heart out of a mouse and keep it alive with plant juice. But this effect is short-lived, and the organ must be placed into a healthy body or it dies. It's impossible to place a live organ in a dead body and expect it to revive every other organ in that body. I think Stewart has observed a basic scientific phenomenon, but his interpretation is crazy."

According to the passage yon have just read, it seemed that Edward Stewart was ______.

A.a trained surgeon

B.an expert botanist

C.a skilled electrician

D.an experienced craftsman

The mystery had now reached its climax: the man had undoubtedly been murdered, and it was
absolutely certain no one could conceivably have done it. It was therefore time to call in the great detective, who gave one searching glance at the corpse, then produced a microscope.

"Aha!" he exclaimed as he picked a hair off the lapel of the dead man's coat." The mystery is a mystery no longer. We have only to find the man who lost this hair, and the criminal will be in our hand." The inexorable chain of logic was complete, and the detective embarked on his search.

For four days and four nights he moved unobserved through the streets of New York, scanning closely every face he passed, looking for a man who had lost a hair. On the fifth day he discovered a man disguised as a tourist, his head enveloped in a cap reaching below his ears. The man was about to board the Gloritania, and the detective lost no time in following him on board.

"Arrest him!" shouted the detective, and then, drawing himself to his full height, he brandished aloft the hair." This is his," said the great detective," and it proves his guilt" .

"Remove his hat," ordered the ship's captain sternly.

It was discovered that the man was entirely bald.

"Aha!" exclaimed the great detective without a moment's hesitation." He has committed not one murder, but about one million!"

The detective declared the mystery solved before he ______.

A.found the hair

B.produced the microscope

C.searched for the murderer

D.glanced at the corpse

Excessive sugar has a strong mal-effect on the functioning of active【46】o______such as the
heart, kidneys and the brain. Shipwrecked sailors who ate and drank nothing but sugar for nine days surely went【47】some of this trauma.

This incident occurred when a vessel carrying a【48】ca______of sugar was shipwrecked in 1793. The five【49】______(survive) sailors were finally rescued nine days after the accident. They were in a wasted condition due to starvation, having consumed nothing but【50】______.

French physiologist F. Magendie was inspired by that incident to【51】co______a series ofexperiments with【52】an______. In the experiments, he fed dogs a diet of sugar and water. All the dogs wasted and died.

The shipwrecked sailors and the French physiologist' s experimental dogs proved the same point. As a steady diet, sugar is worse than nothing. Plain water can keep you【53】a______for quite some time. Sugar and water can kill you. Humans and animals are "unable to subsist【54】______a diet of sugar". The dead dogs in Professor Magendie' s【55】la______alerted the sugar industry to the hazards of free scientific inquiry. From that day to this, the sugar industry has invested millions of dollars in behind-the-scenes, subsidized science. The best scientific names that money could buy have been hired, in the hope that they could one day come up with something at least pseudoscientific in the way of glad tidings about sugar.
