II. Reading comprehension
Humans have five senses: sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch. We use these senses every day of our lives when
we work, play, eat and drink. Animals have senses too, and sometimes they work much better than ours. We have our
food prepared for us－but animals need to find their own food using their senses. For example, animals that hunt
other animals often have very good sight. Some birds can see a mouse at a distance of 1.5 kilometres. However, they
don’t always catch the mouse. Mice have very, very good hearing and this helps them get away from danger!
Insects sometimes have senses that are different from ours. For example, butterflies don’t taste with their mouth
13 17

are_______ months in a year. December is the_______ month of the year.

－they taste with their feet. Crickets（蟋蟀）don’t hear with their ears－they hear with their legs. Chameleons have
two eyes separately and look in two different directions at the same time!
Some animals seem to have a special sense that tells them about the future. Birds, ants and many other animals
are busier looking for food just before bad weather. This helps them stay alive because it’s more difficult to find food
when the weather is bad. They know that bad weather is coming. Birds also use this ability to get out of bad weather
when they fly long distances. For centuries, people have noticed that animals often behave strangely before an
earthquake. For example, in January 1975, a lot of farmers in one part of China told scientists that their horses and

V. Answer the questions．(根据短文内容，回答下列问题。)

Dear Sir／Madam
I have seen your advertisement for a teacher in the magazine Guangxhou Education. I think I’m suitable for the job.
I am 28 years old. I finished my high school education in Xiamen, and then went to university in Fuzhou. I studied
languages, with English as my major(主修课). I always got good scores for all subjects. At university I was a very
active student. I was chairman of the English Film Club and a member of the university volleyball team.
I have traveled to a number of English- speaking countries. I think my English language skills have improved as a
result and I can teach senior classes without any problems.
I have worked as a teacher for four years. I have taught at a well-known language school in Hangzhou. This has
been a good experience. I have taught students how to write good business letters. All these experience would help me
become a good teacher.
I am a warm and friendly person, and my students enjoy my lessons. I like my students to work hard, and I think
language learning can also be fun. I encourage(鼓励) students to use English outside the classroom, do projects and
take part in English language activities. I have helped students put on plays and give conceits of English songs.
I really wish to live in Guangzhou and teach in your school. I hope for an interview so I can tell you more about
myself.
Yours faithfully
William Fang

This is another joke in which unsightly things are
intended to be good-looking. The buzzword comes from a
sentence of Jolin's song
extended to describe weird things. For example, when you
see a very shocking picture, you can use this sentence to express the visual or
psychological impact:
scared to open my eyes.
