【1】About five hundred years ago, an earthquake happened in a small village. Luckily for them, nothing was destroyed (毁坏) and no one was hurt. But a huge stone fell from a nearby mountain and stopped in the middle of the road.
When the earthquake stopped, many people came to the road and saw the stone. Some of the strongest men tried to lift the stone out of the road. But they couldn’t move it. They tried to push it but failed. 【2】They tried to pull it with ropes (绳索) but nothing worked.
“Well,” they said sadly, "【3】there' s nothing we can do about it. We' II have to change the way.”
At this time a boy about 12 years old said, "I think I can help you to move the stone away.”
“You?” they shouted. "What are you talking about?" The men all laughed at the boy. The next morning, some people came into the road. One of them shouted, "The stone is gone." 【4】 更多的人跑出去看发生了什么事。 It was true. The stone wasn't on the road any longer. It wasn't even near the road.

The villagers shouted, “Clever boy! Clever boy!”

24、① Everyone has got two personalities (性格)—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control yourself, but when you’re asleep, your sleeping position (姿势) shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.
② If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don’t like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very confident.
③ If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you’re always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with the way of your life. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.
④ If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You’re shy and you don’t usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.
⑤If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced (平衡的) personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You’re usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel worried, but you don’t often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.

26、Hot Dog Day
In 1972, two students in Alfred, New York started Hot Dog Day. They first celebrated this day on the third Saturday of April. Later, people decided to celebrate Hot Dog Day on July 23rd each summer.
●Things to do Enjoy hot dogs on this day. With sticks, sausages, buns and a big bonfire (篝火), you can even cook hot dogs for yourself! Try hot dogs with some new toppings. Hot cheese, French fries... Be brave and taste them all! Maybe topping is a new word here. Don’t worry! You can guess it, top, topping.... right? Want a healthier hot dog? Try a turkey dog, a vegetable dog or a hot dog made from soya(大豆). ●Tips for eating Don’t put toppings between the hot dog and the bun. Always “dress the dog”, not the bun.

27、In nature, you may see many insects (昆虫)and animals of different colors. Have you ever wondered why?
Locusts(蝗虫) are super delicious food for birds, but it is not always an easy job for birds to catch them .It is neither because locusts are good jumpers or runners nor because they are smarter than their enemies. The reason is that the colors of locusts change with the colors of crops(庄稼). When crops are young, locusts look green. But when autumn comes, locusts change to the yellow and brown color as crops do. Brown bears, tigers and other animals move quietly through forests. They can’t be seen easily by their enemies. This is because they have colors similar to the trees. For the same reason, polar bears that live on a land of snow and ice are white. Butterflies and bees living among the flowers are colorful like flowers. Soil insects are mostly dark-colored and they live under the soil in a dark and wet environment. However, insects with colors different from plants can easily be found and eaten by others. So in order to survive, they have to hide themselves in the daytime and appear only at night.
Have you ever noticed some even stranger acts(行为)? The ink fish in the sea can send out some very black ink when it faces danger. As the ink spreads over, its enemies will find themselves suddenly in a dark world. At the same time the ink fish immediately swims away. That is how it keeps itself safe though it is not strong at all.

A .locusts are good runners
B. locusts can jump very high
C. locusts are smarter than birds
D. locusts can change their color
【2】According to the passage, most soil insects_________
A. do not have bright colors
B. change their colors with the soil
C. do not live in a dark and wet environment
D. eat colorful insects like butterflies and bees
【3】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “survive” in the passage?
A. 繁殖 B. 产卵 C. 觅食 D. 生存
【4】The ink fish _______so that its enemies will not see it.
A. changes its color
B. makes the water around it black
C. appears only at night
D. hides itself in the sea rocks
【5】What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Some insects and animals have different skills.
B. Some insects and animals are clever than we think.
C. Some insects and animals use colors to protect themselves.
D. Some insects and animals can get used to the environment easily.
