The flattened (變平的) wheat formed a circle about six meters across. Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat. The five circles were in a formation like five dots (點(diǎn)). During the following years, farmers in England found the strange circles in their fields more and more often.The circles are called “crop circles” because they appear in the fields of grainusually wheat or corn. The grain in the circles lies flat on the ground but is never broken; it continues to grow, and farmers can later harvest it. Farmers always discover the crop circles in the morning, so the circles probably form at night. They appear only in the months from May to September.At first, people thought that the circles were a hoax. Probably young people were making them as a joke, or farmers were making them to attract tourists. To prove that the circles were a hoax, people tried to make circles exactly like the ones that farmers had found. They could not do it. They couldnt enter a field of grain without leaving tracks, and they couldnt flatten the grain without breaking it.Many people believe that beings from outer space are making the circles to communicate（交流）with us from far away and that the crop circles are messages from them.Scientists who have studied the crop circles suggested several possibilities. Some scientists say that a downward rush of wind leads to the formation of the circlesthe same downward rush of air that sometimes causes an airplane to crash (墜毀). Other scientists say that forces within the earth cause the circles to appear. There is one problem with all these scientific explanations: crop circles often appear in formations, like the five-dot formation. It is hard to believe that any natural force could form those.56. In the summer of 1978, an English farmer discovered in his field that _.A. some of his wheat had been damagedB. his grain was growing up in circlesC. his grain was moved into several circlesD. some of his wheat had fallen onto the ground57. According to the text, the underlined part “a hoax” (line 1, para. 3 ) probably means _.A. an action made to fool peopleB. a special way to plant cropsC. a research on the force of windsD. an experiment for the protection of crops58. Which of the following may prove that the crop circles are not made by man？A. The farmers couldnt step out of the field. B. The farmers couldnt make the circles round.C. The farmers couldnt leave without footprints. D. The farmers couldnt keep the wheat straight up.BBook 1: Iggy peck, ArchitectBy Andrea Beaty32 pages, US $ 15.95This book is the classic oddball (古怪的人) story about a kid whose head teacher does not recognize his great talent ( he makes buildings out of anything at hand, including table cloths, fruit and chalk) until it saves her life.Book 2: The Chicken-Chasing Queen of Lamar CountyBy Janice N.

Janice N. HarringtonC. Andrea Beaty D. Doreen CroninCWhy did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road. “Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,” the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill. “Eco-passages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. “These eco-passages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents,” said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society. But do animals actually use the eco-passages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an eco-passage that went under a highway. This showed that the lions used the passage. Builders of eco-passages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals like salamanders(火蜥蜴) and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses. The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an animal overpass!63. The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that _. A. wild animals have become more dangerous B. the driving condition has improved greatly C. the measure for protecting wildlife fails to work D. an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents64. From the story, we know an eco-passage is _. A. an underground path for carsB. a path for animals to cross the road C. a bridge for animals to get over a river D. a fence built for the safety of the area65. When the writer says that “animals seem to be catching on”(Para. 6), he means _.A. animals begin to learn to use eco-passages B. animals begin to realize the dangers on the road C. animals are crossing the road in groups D. animals are increasing in number66. The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because _.A. they may see wild animals in the parkB. wild animals may jam the roadC. they may see wild animals on eco-passages D. wild animals may attack carsDLosing a baby tooth can be fun for a kid. You can put it under your pillow and look forward to finding some money there in the morning. And then you can watch your new permanent(永恒的) tooth grow in its place.But if a permanent tooth falls out, thats a problem. There isnt another one under the gum(齒齦)that can replace it. Unfortunately, this happens to some older people. And if permanent teeth fall out or need to be pulled, an older person might need dentures.Dentures, known as false teeth, are a set of replacement teeth for any teeth that are missing. There are partial dentures, which take the place of only a few teeth and prevent the others from changing position. If all the teeth are gone, the person would need complete dentures, which replace every tooth in the mouth.Dentures can cause pains at first and take little time to get adjusted to. They also need special care. They should be brushed daily with a special denture brush and cleanser and soaked（浸泡） in denture solution when not in the mouth.Dentures are important for the old because, without teeth, its hard to smile, talk, and eat properly. But it can be a little weird if you see someone take out his or her dentures. It can also be strange to see someone, like a grandparent, without dentures in because he or she wont have any teeth. Try not to make fun of the person because this could cause hurt feelings.People usually lose their permanent teeth due to periodontal disease（牙周炎）, or gum disease, which is caused by bacteria that attacks the gums. Diseased gums arent strong and
