I was not
satisfied to let the matter rest there. I took out
the Webster
’
s
Dictionary
and
read
the
definition
to
Jenny.
I
explained,
“
An
antique
is
not
only
old,
it
’
s
an
object
existing
since
or
belonging
to
earlier
times...a work of
art... a piece of furniture. Antiques are
treasured,
” I
told
Jenny as I put away the dictionary.
“
They have to be handled
carefully because
they sometimes are
very valuable. In order to qualify as an antique,
the object
has to be at least 100 years
old.
”
“
I
’m
only 67,
”
I reminded Jenny.
We looked around the house for other
antiques, besides me. There was a desk
that was handed down from Rone aunt to
another and finally to our family.
“
It
’
s
very old,
” I
told
Jenny.
“
I try to keep it
polished and I show it off whenever
I
can. You do that with antiques.
There
was a picture on the wall bought at a garage sale.
It dated from 1867.
“
Now
that
’
s an
antique,
”
I said with pride.
“
Over 100 years
old.
”
Of course
it
was marked up
and scratched and not in
very
good
condition.
“
Sometimes age
does that,
”
I
told Jenny.
“
But the marks
are good marks. They show living, or
being
around.
That
’
s
something
to
display
with
pride.
In
fact,
sometimes,
the
more an object shows age, the more
valuable it can become.
”
I
believed this was
important for my own
self-worth.
Our tour of antiques
continued. There was a vase
on
the floor. It had been
in my
house for a long time. I was not certain where it
came from but I didn
’
t
buy
it
new.
One
thing
about
antiques,
I
explained
to
Jenny,
was
that
they
usually had a story.
They
’d
been in one home and
then another, handed down from
one
family
to
another,
traveling
all
over
the
place.
They
’
d
lasted
through
years and years. They could have been
thrown away, or ignored, or destroyed, or
lost. But instead, they survived.
For
a
moment,
Jenny
looked
thoughtful.
“
I
don
’
t
have
any
antiques
but
you.
”
she said.
Then her face brightened.
“
Could I take you to school
for show
and
tell?
”
“
Only
if
I
fit
into
your
backpack,
”
I
answered.
And
then
Jenny
’
s
antique
lifted
her
up
and
embraced
her
in
a
hug
that
would
last
through
the
years.
24.
Why
did Grandma read the definition of
“an<
/p>
tique
”
to Jenny ?
A.
to express her
disappointment at being
called
“an
tique
”
B.
to change
Jenny
’
s
shallow
understanding of antiques
C.
to tell Jenny the
importance of protecting antiques

dear relatives.
B. There was usually a
sad story behind
each antique. C. The
spots on the picture

value.
D. She planned to buy a new vase
to replace the old one.
26.
What can be inferred from the last
paragraph?
A.
Grandma was too old to lift Jenny up.
B.
Jenny was too young to
know grandma
’
s
humor. C.
Jenny had a strong

C.A Tour of Antiques
C
D. Story of
Antiques
Today, we are told, children
don
’
t spend enough time in
the fresh air.
Many of them are
addicted to a screen either on a computer or a
TV
—
they seem
to
be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch
with nature.
But now 400 organizations
in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health
Service, are encouraging children to
have some
“
wild
ti
me”
. They
wan
t kids to
swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV
or playing computer games for time
playing outside. Activities such as
building dens, climbing trees, and playing
hide and seek are just some of the
things kids can do. Even if they live in a
city, they can go on adventures in the
garden or the park.
Children often need
a helping hand from mum and dad. They need to be
shown
what to do and where to go. Andy
Simpson from National Health Service says,
“
We
want parents
to see what this magical wonder product does for
their kid
s’
development, independence and
creativity, by giving wild time a
go
”
.
So despite
the complicated world that young people grow up in
now, it seems
that going back to basics
and experienci
ng“na
ture
’
s
playground
”
is what
modern children need. David Bond from
Project Wild Thing says,
“
We need to make more space
for wild time in children
’
s
daily routine
，
freeing this generation of kids to have
the sort of experiences that many of us
took for
grant
ed”．
This
might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe,
like me, it
’
s
made you think about sticking on your
boots, getting outdoors and reliving
your childhood.
There
’
s no age limit on
enjoying yourself!
28.
Which
of the following activities are children not
encouraged to do?
A.
building dens.
B. climbing
trees. C. playing hide and seek.
D. watching TV
.
29. According to Andy
Simpson
，
what information can
we get?
A. wild time is
hard to design.
B. wild
time is beneficial for children.
C.
parents know the importance of
wild
time. D. parents like keeping
their
children indoors.
30. How is the
passage mainly developed?
A. By following time orders
B. By comparing.
C. By
listing examples
．
D. By giving
explanations
．
31.
What is the exact meaning for the underlined word

D. disappointing events
An international team of researchers
from the University of Oxford have
found that the way people use the
Internet is closely tied to the seasonal
movements in the natural world. Their
online
species searches follow the
patterns of seasonal animal migrations
(
迁徙
).
Migratory
birds
(

back
to
where
they
reproduce
every

That

some human behavior.

(

In English-
“

the online
searches for migratory species tend to increase in
spring when those
birds arrive in the
United States,
”
said the lead author John
Mittermeier.
And
not
just
birds.
Mittermeier
and
his
team
surveyed
nearly
2.5
billion
Wikipedia
search
records,
for
32,000
species,
across
245
languages.
They
also
saw
variable search rates for insects, horsetails and
flowering plants. Seasonal
trends
seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for
many species of plants
and animals.
This finding suggests new ways to
monitor changes in the
world
’
s biological
diversity. It also shows new ways to
see how much people care about nature, and
which species and areas might be the
most effective targets for conservation.
Mittermeier
is
encouraged
by
the
search
results.
He
commented,
“
I
think
there
’
s
a
concern
among
conservationists
(

that
people
are
losing touch with the natural world and
that they
’re
not

that sense,
it

really
exciting

quite

”
Ri
chard
Grenyer,
Associate
Professor
from
the
University
of
Oxford,
says
search
data
is
useful
to
conservation
biologists,
“
By
using
these
big
data
approaches,
we
can
direct
our
attention
towards
the
difficult
questions
in
modern
conservation:
which
species and
areas are changing,
and
where are the people who care the most and
can do the most to
help.
”
32.
What have researchers found about
species
searches?
A.
They strengthen ties
among
people. B.
They affect
the

C.
They reflect animal migration
seasons. D.
They differ in
