XIV. Read the passage and choose A, B, C, or D for each of the following statements.
It is a common saying that we do not fully value a thing until we lose it. We often value the love and worth of a
friend when he has been taken from us by death more than when he was with us in the flesh, it is only when we
have left school or college that we understand the greatness of our opportunity of education, which has gone
forever and it is the sick and the ailing who realize the value of good health. When we are young and strong, we
cannot imagine what it is to be weak and ailing. We are so used to vigorous health that we take it for granted. The
organs of our body work so smoothly that we scarcely know we have lungs and liver, heart and stomach. But when
any of these gets upset and gives us pain and sickness, we learn by bitter experience what an unspeakable blessing
it is to be well.
Loss of health makes us miserable and a burden to ourselves and our friends. It cripples our efforts so that we
cannot accomplish many of the good and great things we might have done. It spoils our life. What must we do to
keep our health?
We must be moderate in eating and drinking and wise in the choice of plain, wholesome simple food. Gluttony
has killed thousands, and strong drink tens of thousands. We must, when young, get plenty of sleep, which is
"nature's sweet restorer", and not try to bum the candle at both ends. We must live as much as possible in the open
air and keep our rooms well ventilated. We must get sufficient and regular physical exercise, and keep our bodies
clean. And we must avoid bad habits and secret sins as we avoid the devil, and keep our thoughts clean and our
bodies pure. Our ideal must be the sound mind in the sound body.
1. According to the passage, we often appreciate our friends.........
A. only when they are with us. B. only when they are good to us.
C. only when they passed away. D. only when they live a long way from us.
2. We do not take care of ourselves because.........
A. we are always in good health. B. most of the diseases can be cured nowadays.
C. we are so accustomed to good health. D. We are so busy making a living.
3. Poor health makes us.........
A. useless. B. unable to fulfill our expectations.
C. a shame to our friends. D. fail to become famous.
4. According to the author, having plenty of sleep when we are young.........
A. is wasting our time. B. can help us regain our strength.
C. may cause loss of health. D. can reduce our vigour.
5. The best title for the passage is.........
A. Health and Human Aspirations. B. Health and Our Success.
C. How to Keep Our Health. D. The Value of Health.

THE DOLPHIN
Can dolphins talk? Maybe they can't talk with words, but they talk with sounds. They show their
feelings with sounds.
Dolphins travel in a group. We call a group offish a "school". They don't study, but they travel
together. Dolphins are mammals, not fish, but they swim together in a school.

Dolphins talk to the other dolphins in the school. They give information. They tell when they are
happy or said or afraid. They say "Welcome" when a dolphin comes back to the school. They talk
when they play.
They make a few sounds above water. They make many more sounds under water. People cannot
hear these sounds because they are very very high. Scientists make tapes of the sounds and study
them.
Sometimes people can catch a dolphin for a large aquarium. (An aquarium is a zoo for fish.) People
can watch the dolphins in a show. Dolphin don't like to be away from their school in an aquarium.
They are sad and lonely.
There are many stories about dolphins. They help people. Sometimes, they save somebody's life.

A recent investigation by scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey shows that strange animal
behaviour might help predict future earthquakes. Investigators found such occurrences in a ten-
kilometre radius of the epicenter of a fairly recent quake. Some birds screeched and flew about
wildly; dogs yelped and ran around uncontrollably.
Scientists believe that animals can perceive these environmental changes early as several days
before the mishap. In 1976 after observing animal behaviour, the Chinese were able to predict
devastating quake. Although hundreds of thousands of people were killed, the government was able
to evacuate millions of other people and thus keep the death toll at a lower level.
