Five years ago， when I taught art at a school in Seattle， I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student， and said， “Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today—and 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week.”

A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see what the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.

Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect other students.

Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare， “But I’m just not creative.”

“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”

“Oh， sure.”

“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative—flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”

“Nobody. I do it.”

“Really—at night， when you’re asleep?”

“Sure.”

“Try doing it in the daytime， in class， okay?”

24. Why did the teacher use Tinkertoys in class?

A. To know more about the students." " B. To make the lessons more exciting.

C. To raise the students’ interest in art." " D. To teach the students about toy design.

25. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?

A. He liked to help his teacher." " B. He preferred to study alone.

C. He was active in class." " " " D. He was imaginative.

26. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A. Mistake." B. Disadvantage." " C. Difficulty." D. Complaint.

27. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?

A. To see their creativity." " " B. To form their sleeping habits.

C. To improve their memory." D. To know their ways of thinking.

Evidence of a worm-like creature about the size of a grain of rice has been uncovered in South Australia， and researchers believe it is the oldest ancestor on the family tree that includes humans and most animals. The creature lived about 535 million years ago. It is considered to be an evolutionary step forward for early life on Earth.

Researchers have been trying to find evidence of the common ancestor of most animals. Developing its body structure and organization successfully allowed life to move in specific， purposeful directions. This includes everything from worms and dinosaurs to amphibians (两栖动物) and humans. But for our common ancestor， they knew that fossils (化石) of the tiny， simple creatures they imagined would be nearly impossible to find because of its size and soft body. Then， they turned to fossilized burrows (地洞)， dated to the Ediacaran Period， found in South Australia.

For 15 years， scientists knew the burrows were created by the creature. There was no evidence of what made the burrows and lived in them until researchers decided to take a closer look at the burrows. Geology professor Mary Droser spotted impressions shaped like ovals (椭圆形) near the burrows.

A 3D laser scan revealed the impressions containing evidence of a body shaped and sized like a rice grain， with a noticeable head and tail which suggested it had muscles. The muscles would have enabled the creature to move and create the burrows， like the way a worm moves. And the size of the creature matched with the size of the burrows they found.

The researchers involved in the study named the creature Ikaria wariootia. The first name translates as “meeting place” in the Adnyamathanha language. Adnyamathanha is the name of Australian people that live in the area where the fossil was found.

28. What does the underlined word “It” refer to in Paragraph 1?

A. The family tree. B. The grain of rice. C. The creature. D. The ancestor.

29. What did the researchers do during the study?

A. They observed the burrows close up.

B. They went into the burrows of Ediacaran Period.

C. They developed the creature in the expected way.

D. They studied a large number of worms and dinosaurs.

30. What inspired the scientists to explore the origin of the burrows?

A. The 3D laser scan." B. The impressions. C. The ovals. D. The muscles.

31. What can be the best title for the text?

A. A Study of a Worm-like Creature B. Researchers’ Discovery in the Burrows

C. Name a New Kind of Creature D. The Origin of Australian People

The kids in this village wear dirty， ragged clothes. They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud. They have no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet， and some can make words.

The key to their success: 20 tablet computers (平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a US group called One Laptop Per Child.

The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing (分析) the project data say they’re already amazed. “What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten，” said Matt Keller， who runs the Ethiopian program.

The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse. The device’s camera was disabled to save memory， yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work. He called himself a lion， a marker of accomplishment (成就) in Ethiopia.

With his tablet， Kelbesa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows. Then he spelled words on his own. “Seven months ago he didn’t know any English. That’s unbelievable，” said Keller.

The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading”， where they can read to learn. It won’t be in Amharic， Ethiopia’s first language， but in English， which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.

32. How does the Ethiopian program help the kids in the village?

A. It provides money for building schools." " B. It allows them to study on their own.

C. It improves their living standards." " " " D. It trains teachers for them.

33. What can we infer from Keller’s words in Paragraph 3?

A. They need more time to analyze data.

B. More children are needed for the research.

C. He is confident about the future of the project.

D. The research should be carried out in kindergartens.

34. It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could .

A. make phone calls to his friends" " " " B. learn English words quickly

C. write letters to researchers" " " " " D. draw pictures of animals

35. What is the aim of the project?

A. To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.

B. To make Amharic widely used in the world.

C. To help Ethiopian kids read and learn in English.

D. To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.
