27、 3】 D 【小题 4】 B Have you ever seen people dance Some dances are fast and others are slow. Peoples feet always move when they dance. They keep on moving until the music stops. People have enjoyed dancing for a very long time. This story is of a different kind of dance. It is a dance without people or
28、music. Yet this dance is one of the oldest in the world. It is the dance of bees. If you have ever watched bees, you know that they are very clever. They also work hard looking for food and bringing it back to their home. The home of the bees is called a bee hive. Here hundreds even thousand of bees
29、 live. They work day and night building small walls. There they make their honey. This is the same honey that we eat. Where does the honey come from Bees live on food from flowers.

32、t fly to reach the flowers. When the bees see the dance, they know where the flowers are. They fly away and return with more food for the hive.

43、t their heroes, their choice would probably fall into three groups. The first group of heroes would be the rock stars the people connected with rock music. There is no doubt that such people do have talent but one wonders if one should hold up rock stars as a model (推举 为榜样 ). The rock stars too ofte
44、n are involved with drugs and their personal life is not all that good. The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles.

45、rson who has a great ability in one area SPORTS. However, too often the personal life of the sports star is a bit of a mess. Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star. A third type of hero is the TV or movie star. This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite
46、handsome. However, the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model for young people. Today, the rock star, the athlete and the actor all have become the models of the youth in America. Really, do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor, a tea
47、cher, or a scientist These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes. However, they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone. What is really sad is that the young try to imitate their heroes. They like to wear the same clothes and follow their sty
48、les. If the heroes of today for the American youngsters are only rock stars, athletes and actors, the future does not look too bright. 【小题 1】 The hero discussed in this article means a person _. A who has done something brave B who plays an important role in a play C whom people greatly admire D who rides the waves and moves with the tides 【小题 2】 What is true of the groups ment
