37、Squirrels (松鼠）are getting ready for winter. They are looking for nuts and seeds，digging holes in the ground or finding holes in trees. Thats where they store the food they will need during the coming months, when the weather is cold and sometimes snowy.Squirrels spend a lot of time in trees, which a

First, stars arent little. Some may be Earth-sized, but most are bigger than Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar

45、system (太陽系). Second, they dont twinkle; they shine. And the brightness and color of the light from each star provide information about its temperature, size and even its age. viewing the stars from Earth is a bit like looking at them through a water filter (過濾器) because the air is thick compared to

46、 the emptiness of space. What is more, air is always moving, so starlight appears to be moving, too. The air also makes stars appear dimmer (暗淡的) than they would be if we could see them from space.If you stop and look at the sky carefully on a dark and moonless night, its easy to find color differen

47、ces among stars. The color of a star is a signal of its surface temperature. The hottest stars are blue, and the next hottest are white. Yellow stars like the sun are next, while red stars are the coolest of the visible (可見的) stars. Many red stars are so dim that people cant see them at all, and som

48、e stars hardly send out any light at all. One reason that stars different in brightness is that hotter stars produce more energy than cooler ones, but another important reason is that some are much bigger than others.Some stars appear brighter to humans simply because theyre closer. Astronomers rank

49、 (排列) the brightness of stars which are seen from Earth by giving them a name known as magnitude (光度) -the smaller the magnitude, the brighter the object. They have also designed a number that ranks stars according to how bright they are when compared to each other. With a magnitude of minus 26.7, t

50、he sun is the brightest object in the sky.1From the song quite familiar to children, the writer wants to prove that .Amost stars are smaller than JupiterBJupiter is bigger and brighter than EarthCstars are very large and always shine brightlyDstarlights brightness and color are the signs of its temp

51、erature2Magnitude is designed to see .Ahow far a star is from EarthBhow bright a star is compared to other starsChow far a star is from other starsDhow bright a star is seen from Earth3Which is the best title of this passage?AWhat do stars look like?BWhich song do children like best?CHow to view the

52、 stars from Earth?DWhy are many stars so dim at night?F18、In the middle of a really embarrassing moment, you might feel like you just want to disappear. Maybe you wish for a time machine that could send you back five minutes. Well, time machines are hard to come by in the real world, so finding a be

53、tter way of getting through the humiliation(蒙羞的場面) is needed.Sometimes, embarrassment is caused by how we act after we make an unwanted thing. If the thing is a small one, you can just pretend it didnt happen, and many people wont notice. On the other hand, if you stop, or get red in the face after

54、youve messed up, people will really notice, and it will be hard to let the moment pass by. Of course, some embarrassing moments are too big or obvious for this plan to work.Sometimes when you meet or get caught in a really cringe-worthy(尷尬的) moment, it doesnt seem funny. Other people may laugh, but

55、you just get red in the face and feel like curling up in a ball of shame. But there are some people who can laugh at their own mistakes. When they mess up, they laugh harder than their friends do! People likethisdont stay embarrassed for long, because this can turn into another funny story. They mig

56、ht even make a joke about their mistake before anyone else gets the chance to.You shouldnt pretend a laugh if you really feel angry or embarrassed, but changing your attitude or outlook might be worth trying. Remember that a thing that makes you embarrassed today will probably make you laugh tomorrow. So why not try to laugh today?根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案，將其標號填入題前括號內(nèi)。1Why do persons wish for a time machine in this passage?AThey want to turn younger.BThey miss the past years.CThey terrify the future days.DThey dont want something to happen.2I
