On the island of New Zealand, there is a grasshopper-like species of insect that is found nowhere else on earth. New Zealanders have given it the nickname weta, which is a native Maori word meaning “god of bad looks”. It’s easy to see why anyone would call this insect a bad-looking bug. Most people feel disgusted at the sight of these bulky(笨重的)，slow-moving creatures.
Wetas are natural creatures; they come out of their caves and holes only after dark. A gaint weta can grow to over three inches long and weigh as much as 1.5 ounces. Giant wetas can hop up to two feet at a time. Some of them live in trees, and others live in caves. They are very long-lived for insects, and some adult wetas can live as long as two years. Just like their cousins grasshoppers and crickets, wetas are able to “sing” by rubbing their leg parts together, or against their lower bodies.
Most people probably don’t feel sympathy for these endangered creatures, but they do need protecting. The slow and clumsy wetas have been around on the island since the times of the dinosaurs, and have evolved and survived in an environment where they had no enemies until rats came to the island with European immigrants. Since rats love to hunt and eat wetas, the rat population on the island has grown into a real problem for many of the native species that are unaccustomed to its presence, and poses a serious threat to the native weta population.
1..According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
The weta is a newly discovered insect species.
The Maoris nicknamed themselves “Wetas”.
The Europeans brought wetas to New Zealand.
Wetas are unpleasant to the eye.
2..The strange thing about wetas is that they can produce pleasant sounds by ________.
A. rubbing their body parts
B. moving slowly on the ground
C. hopping up to two feel at a time
D. coming out only at night
3.Which of the following descriptions of wetas is accurate?
A. They are quick in movement.
B. They are decreasing in number.
C. They are very active in the daytime.
D. They have a short lifespan for insects.
4.The underlined word “its” in the last paragraph is the closest in meaning to “_________”.
A. The dinosaur’s B. The weta’s C. The island’s D. The rat’s
5.From which of the following is the passage LEAST likely to be taken?
A. A science magazine. B. A travel guide.
C. A business journal. D. biology textbook.

For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.
Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants（污染物）can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution.
People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is true that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they build buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases.
As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building—green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves absorb or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.
1. Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because _ .
A．indoor air pollution can often make people seriously ill
B．there may be more harmful gases outside the buildings

D．the air indoors is polluted, which is very harmful
2. Some kind of indoor pollution can be found in _______.
A．every old house B．every modern house
C．all kinds of houses D．all kinds of offices
3. The indoor air pollution is caused by ______.
A．the man-made building materials and the limit of air-flow
B．the building way that the builders want to save energy
C．the building things that are made of man-made materials
D．the limit of the flow of air between inside and outside
4. The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that ______.
A．plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoors
B．plants may take in more oxygen which people need
C．plants can make our houses prettier and more healthy
D．plants can absorb all kinds of harmful indoor chemicals
