阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.
(A)
Once there was a magical fairy who had the gift of making wishes come true. Every half-moon she helped one elf(精灵) to achieve one wish. Lately, however, it was hard to decide whose wish would be the next to come true. It wasn't that there were so many caves who should have a wish achieved for their excellent performance. It was that there were so many who shouldn't have it at all because of their bad behaviour.
So on the night of the next half-moon she thought of a plan to find a worthy elf. She put on some dirty old clothes and turned herself into a beggar and walked into the magic forest.
Soon she saw an elf holding a cup of hot tea in his hands. “Good day, good friend. I seem to have lost my way,” she said in a raspy voice. “Could you please help me get home?”
“Why me?” The elf blew steam from his cup. “There are lots of other eaves around.”
“Okay,” said the beggar. “I'll find someone else.”
She soon came upon a second elf polishing stones. “Good day, good friend.” The beggar sighed. “I'm a little bit lost. I don't suppose you could help guide me home?”
“Why now?” said the elf. “I'm busy. Can't you see?”
“Never mind.” The beggar shook her head.
The third elf she c am c upon was sleeping under a mushroom. The beggar tapped his shoulder with her cane. “Good day, good friend. I seem to be lost. Could you help me find my way home?”
“Why bother?” The elf yawned. “I'd rather take a nap.” He rolled over and went back to sleep.
The beggar sighed. Then she sat down to think. Soon she heard some noise. She looked up to find an elf riding a little horse. He wore like a prince.
“Silly elf,” the beggar said to herself in a low voice. “He thinks he's someone special.”
“What's troubling you, my friend?” he asked.
The beggar said, “Oh, dear prince, no one seems to care about my problems. I've asked three elves to help me act home. The first said, ‘Why me?’ The second said ‘Why now?’ The third said ‘Why bother?’ Would you help me?”
The prince stopped for a moment and then said, “Why not?”
The beggar's eyes lit up. “That's the most wonderful answer of all!”
“But there's something you should know,” the prince said, as he helped the beggar up on his horse. “I'm not really a prince. I'm an ordinary elf with extraordinary dreams. That's why I dress this way.”
“Well, there's something you should know, too. I'm not really a lost and lonely beggar. I'm really a magical fairy.”
The elf turned around, and sure enough, a fairy was sitting behind him.
“You are a prince, in more ways than one.” she said. “And your dreams will come true.” With a magic wand in her hand, she waved it over his head.
26. Why did the fairy have difficulty making one of the eaves' wishes come true?

B. She couldn't find an elf whose wish was worth her help.

As people get older, the types of friends they have tend to change. As young adults, humans have a lot of friends. With age, they often prefer to spend their time with just a few close, positive people. Researchers long believed that this change was unique to humans, but a new study finds that chimpanzees also have similar trends.
One explanation for the humans to get picky about social connections has to do with awareness of our limited life time. “People monitor how much time we have left in our life and choose emotion ally-fulfilling relationships in old age,” says one of the study's lead authors Alexandra G. Rosati, a psychologist at the University of Michigan. As people age, they don't want to be surrounded by a large group of negative friends, but would prefer to be near some optimistic ones.
Rosati and her colleague were curious whether chimpanzee would show similar features even though they don't seem to be aware of their upcoming death. Researchers used 78,000 hours of observations made over 20 years from the Kibale Chimpanzee Project in Uganda. The data looked at the social interactions (互动) of 21 male chimpanzee between 15 and 58 years old. The researchers only studied male chimpanzee because they show stronger social bonds and have more social interactions than female chimpanzee.
Researchers found that wild chimpanzee share a similar pattern. “They interact with others in more positive ways as they get older. Younger adults, in contrast, show more aggression(好斗情绪) and were more likely to formone-sided relationships where their partner did not reciprocate.” says Rosati. For example, the older chimpanzees would sit close to their long-time companions and groom(给……梳毛) each other, while younger chimps had more one-sided relationships where they would groom a friend, but the action wasn't returned. The study was published in the journal Science.
“This aging pattern may be the result of shared changes in our abilities to manage our emotions with age,” Rosati says. “This shared pattern between chimpanzee and humans could represent an adaptive response where older adults focus on important social relationships that provide benefits and avoid interactions that have negative results as they lose competitive fighting ability.”
34. Why do humans change their preference for friends in old age?
A. They don't like making new friends. B. Their friends pass away one by one.
C. They adapt to the changes in nature. D. They know their life is running out.
35. What is the purpose of Paragraph 3?
A. To show the study was done scientific ally.
B. To show how scientists tried to prove their guessing.
C. To show how hard it was to observe the chimpanzee.
D. To show male chimpanzee are unaware of upcoming death.
36. What does the underlined word “reciprocate” in Paragraph 4 mean? ______
A. Repay their kindness. B. Take care of them.
C. Get along well with them. D. Sit close to them.
37. Which can be a suitable title for the text? _________
A. People prefer positive Partners in Old Age B. Positive Bonds Benefit Chimps in Many Ways
C. Aging Chimps like Us act Picky About Friends D. Chimps Share Similar Tendencies with Humans

Monarch butterflies from eastern Canada make the most amazing journey in the insect world. Each year, this butterfly travels about 3000 miles to its winter home in central Mexico. How can it fly so far? 41 Scientists still don't have an answer.
For many years, people in Mexico wondered where the orange-and-black butterflies came from every winter. Then, in 1937, a scientist started to follow and study the butterflies. 42 Four months later, it arrived in Mexico.
43 How do the butterflies find their way back to the same place? This is an interesting question because only every fourth generation makes the trip south. In other words, the butterfly that travels to Mexico this year is the great-great-grandchild of the butterfly that traveled there last year.
Each year, four generations of a Monarch butterfly family are born. Each generation of the family has a very different life. The first generation is born in the south in late April. It slowly moves north, reproduced, and then dies. 44 Each of these generations of butterflies is born. This generation has a much longer life. It lives for about eight months. This generation of butterflies makes the amazing journey back to the winter home of its great-great-grandparents. The butterflies spend the winter there, and in the spring they reproduce and then die. Their offspring will be the first generation of the next circle of life.
45 But they are not clear about everything.
A. Today, people are still studying the Monarch butterfly.
B. And why does it make this long and dangerous trip?
C. On the trip north, two more generations are born, reproduce, and die.
D. For the next 20 years, he discovered that one butterfly started its journey in Canada.
E. Another amazing thing is that the butterflies always return to the same area in central Mexico.
