Confucius once heard two of his students arguing. One was gentle and peaceful. The other was smart and kind but had a quick temper. If he wished to do a thing, he did it. If anyone tried to stop him, he would show sudden and terrible anger.
One day, after another argument, blood came from his mouth. In great fear, he went to Confucius.
“What shall I do with my body ” he asked, “I fear I shall not live long. It may be better that I no longer study and work. You love me as a father. Tell me what to do for my body.”
Confucius answered, “Tsze_Lu, you are wrong about your body. It is not the study, nor the work in school, but your great anger that causes the trouble.”
“When you and Nou_Wui argued, he was at peace and happy again in a short time but it took you too long to get over your anger. Also, you get angry with others too easily. If you don’t use more self-control, you can’t expect to live long. Now tell me how many teeth you have.”
“Thirty-two.”
“How many tongues(舌头) ”
“Just one.”
“How many teeth have you lost ”
“I lost one when I was nine years old, and four when I was about twenty-six years old.”
“And your tongue -- is it still perfect ”
“Oh, yes.”
“You know Mun-Gun, who is quite old ”
“Yes, I know him well.”
“How many teeth do you think he had at your age ”
“I do not know.”
“How many does he have now ”
“Two, I think. But his tongue is perfect, though he is very old.”
“You see the teeth are lost because they are strong, and keep going after everything they want. They are hard and hurt the tongue many times. The tongue is peaceful and gentle with the teeth. It never grows angry and fights them. Yet, it is always there until the end.
“And so it is with man. The strongest to fight, is the first to fail; and you, Tsze-Lu, will be even so if you don’e learn the great lesson of self-control.”
According to the passage, who of the following got angry easily
Confucius. B. Tsze-Lu. C. Nou-Wui. D. Mun-Gun.
Why did Tsze_Lu go to Confucius for help
He always argued with others. B. Others students didn’t like him.
C. He was worried about his health. D. He was afraid he couldn’t study any more.
28. From this story, which of the following best describe Confucius
A. Gentle and hard-working. B. Confident and good at learning.
C. Serious and easy-going. D. Patient and skillful in teaching.
29. What lesson can we learn from this story
A. We should never argue with others.
B. Gentle people live longer than strong people.
C. We should control ourselves and never stay angry for long.
D. Always protect our teeth because they could be easily lost.

A new study shows that roosters can identify(辨认) themselves in a mirror. The surprising result raises questions not just about how smart roosters are, but about how scientists test animal intelligence.
Scientists use Mark Test to test whether an animal can identify itself. First of all, a mark is put on an animal, usually in a place that can only be seen with a mirror. Then the animal is placed before a mirror. If it seems to pay attention to the mark, scientists believe the animal has identified itself.
The Mark Test is often seen as a good way to learn how smart an animals is. __▲__ Scientists at a university in Germany recently ran the Mark Test on roosters. They put a pink mark on the chest of the roosters. But when the roosters looked in a mirror, they didn’t seem to notice the mark.
So the scientists tried a new test by using the shadow(阴影) of hawk(鹰) to see whether or not the rooster thought it was alone. Roosters may make loud calls to warn nearby chickens when a hawk flies above. If they’re alone, they remain quiet.
First, the scientists helped the roosters get used to being in a closed -- in space and having a mirror around. After some time, they took the mirror out and ran several tests by making a hawk shadow appear above the bird and watching how it reacted.
When there was no mirror, the roosters reacted as usual. They called out when they were near another rooster, but remained quiet after the other rooster was taken out by the scientists.
Then, the mirror was put back. When a rooster could see itself in the mirror, it remained silent even with the hawk shadow above it. Later, the scientists put the other rooster behind the mirror. It still didn’t make any sound.
The results show that the roosters knew they were seeing themselves in the mirror, and not other roosters. That shows that the Mark Test may not be a good test of whether an animal can identify itself.
The scientists hope their results will encourage other scientists to look for better ways of testing how smart animals are. It may turn out that some kinds of animals are more intelligent than people though.
What is the first step for the scientists to do the Mark Test
Paying attention to a mark, B. Putting a mark on animal.
C. Feeding an animal some food. D. Placing an animal before a mirror.
31. Which of the following can be put in __▲__ in paragraph 3
A. As a result, they need a better way.
B. However, some scientists did another test on roosters.
C. Until recently, only one kind of bird had passed the test.
D. But some scientists believe it doesn’t work well for all animals.
32. According to paragraphs ⑤-⑦, which of the following shows the correct order of the second test
b-a-e-c-d B. b-e-a-c-d C. a-b-d-e-c D. a-e-b-d-c
Which part of the magazine is the passage most probably from
Animal World B. Quiz Time C. Science Discovery D. Book Review

A recent study says volunteering can be good for health. Maybe it could help with some problems the youth are facing these days.
Kids and teenagers who volunteer aren’t just helping others. They might also be helping themselves. The new study found that volunteering through school or other groups is connected with better health among children and teens.
Kids who took part in voluntary work were 34% more likely(可能的) to be in very good physical health than those who didn’t, the study found. And those who volunteered were 66% more likely to be considered doing well in general. Kids aged 12 and older who volunteered were 25% less likely to have anxiety than those who didn’t. The findings come from information provided by the parents of some 50,000 kids in the United States ages 6 to 17. About half of those parents reported that their kids did voluntary work.
The result of the study comes at an important time for youth health. In recent years, more and more young people suffer from anxiety. More than 40% of high school students reported experiencing feelings of sadness or hopelessness in 2021. So there’s a clear need for convenient and useful methods of solving this problem. Giving back to the society may be one choice. And this study isn’t the only one to reach that conclusion.
However, studies like this have limitations. Parents answered questions about their kids’ health and voluntary activity. But a parent might not know if their child experiences anxiety(焦虑) or considers themselves to be doing well.
How did the author organize paragraph 3
By telling stories. B. By listing numbers. C. By answering questions. D. By giving explanations.
What does the underlined word “limitations” in paragraph 5 mean
Ending. B. Weakness. C. Information. D. Consideration.
What can be the best title of this passage
Helping Others, Helping Oneself B. Choices for Voluntary Work
C. Voluntary Work Builds Kid’s Health D. Healthy People Do More Volunteering
