     Humans today look very different from   1   they were like hundreds of thousands of years ago. Human evolution(进化) has changed our bodies in many ways. But there's still a question for the scientists. Will humans keep changing or have we reached the   2  of the line?
     Since modern man appeared around 50,000 years ago, there have been   3   physical changes in our evolution. Some scientists think that technology and medicine have   4  down evolution. Because we are smart enough to build things that solve problems, we don't need our bodies to get used to the   5  .
      But many others disagree, and they argue that we have continued to change over time. For example, our brains have become a little bit   6   over the last 30, 000 years. Scientists say this is not because we are becoming more stupid   7   because our brains have become more effective.
      But evolution isn't just about obvious (明显的) changes. It's also about small genetic(基因的) changes   8   inside of us.  The movement of people around the world has caused humans to change even faster. It has become easier for diseases to get around and the human body has to   9   more quickly to protect itself.
     But it's   10   to tell what might happen next. Many believe it is foolish to try and tell the future of human evolution.

     Several days ago, I was walking home from school and saw some writing on the fence of a house I was passing by. It said, “Happiness is a direction, not a destination (终点).” I had been having a bad day and just reading this brightened my day a little. I also took out a pen and wrote one of my favorite quotes (格言) down.
 When I came back to the fence, I saw another quote under mine in the handwriting as the first one. I added another, and we kept at this pattern for quite a while. One day, I was writing another quote on the fence and the old man, one of my neighbors, who owned the fence, saw me. He came out and I was afraid he would be mad at me for writing on his fence; he was not known to be very friendly. He gave me a sharp glance and then read the quotes on the fence. Without saying a word, he said something to himself and then went back inside. I was a bit terrified for a while, afraid to go back to the fence, but when I did, I noticed not more quotes but two words in entirely different handwriting had been added, “Thank you.”
Later, I saw the old man in his front yard. He beckoned (召唤) me over and told me how my quotes had been inspiring him, how he thanked me and how he was glad to see young people still have “values”. We are now good friend and I talk to him a lot. This experience has changed my life. I still don’t know who wrote that very first quote, but if he is out there, I’d like to say “thanks” to that unknown friend.
8. Why did the writer begin to write a quote on the fence?
A. He wanted to practice his handwriting.
B. He had gotten some help from the quote.
C. He thought doing this was interesting.
D. He wanted to catch his neighbor’s attention.
9 Why was the writer afraid when he found that his neighbor had seen him?
A. He had thought that the old man was a mad person.
B. he had once been told the old man was cold-hearted.
C. He thought the old man would scold him for what he had done.
D. He thought the old man would tell his parents about his action.
10. Who must have added “Thank you.” to the fence?
A. The old man.  B. Someone else.  C. The writer himself.  D. That unknown friend. 11. We can learn from the passage that __________.
   A. writing quotes on fences is a good idea
B. the writer has written three quotes on the fence
C. the good relationship between neighbors is very important.
D. the old man has changed his opinion about young people.

Do you want to know how and why a fall leaf changes color We first have to understand what leaves are and what they do.
Leaves are the world’s food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots and take CO2 from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and CO2 into glucose(葡萄糖), a kind of sugar. Plants use it as food for energy and growing.
A chemical called “chlorophyll” in the leaves gives plants their green colour. As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter, and trees “know” to begin getting ready for winter.
During winter, there is not enough sunlight or water. Trees rest during this time and live on the food they store during the summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. As the green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves, we begin to see yellow and orange leaves.
The bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in autumn. In some trees, like maples(枫树), sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turn the glucose in the leaves into a red colour. And we can enjoy the beautiful red leaves during autumn.
11.Which should be in the box?
 sunlight +  + CO2  glucose
A. air          B. sugar         C. water          D. wind
12.The underlined word “chlorophyll” means __________.
A. 蛋白质    B. 脂肪     C.叶绿素   D.淀粉
13.The leaves t urn yellow because they are short of __________.
A. sunlight and water     B. glucose and energy
C. water and CO2      D. sunlight and CO2
14 . Which of the following is NOT true
A. When autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter．
B. Trees begin to stop making food in summer．
C. During winter some of yellow and orange colors are still in the leaves．
D. During winter trees live on the food they store in summer．
15. This passage tells us_____________．
A. the plants can grow well only with the sunlight
B. there are all kinds of plants on the earth
C. maple leaves change the color as other trees
D. not all the colors of the leaves are from chlorophyll

Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think we’re hurting that person by criticizing(批评) him or her often, but we’re really only hurting ourselves.
