Saharan silver ants (银蚁) are the world’s fastest ants. Unlike other living things in the     1    , Saharan silver ants don’t just hide in cool places when it is hot     2     the day. For up to 10 minutes a day, they run out over the hot sand and try to find food. If you’ve ever walked without shoes on hot sand, you will know how hot it can be. But the Sahara is much     3    —the temperature can be as high as 60℃. It is really a big     4     for the ants.

Scientists from Germany     5     studied these amazing ants. Their research helps us better understand     6     the ants can move so fast.

The silver ants have six legs. They move in a special way so that they won’t die. When they move, the ants use the front and back legs on one side and the middle on the     7     side at a time. They spring off (弹离) the ground, leaving all six legs in the air     8     the other three legs touch the ground. And the ants’ legs hit the ground for just 0.007     9    .

How     10     these silver ants are!

A. but     B. surprise     C. used     D. them     E. older     F. habit     G. from

For people who love reading, there’s nothing better than the smell of an old book. But what makes old books smell the way they do? The paper, ink and glue that are     1     to make books hold hundreds of chemical compounds (化合物). Lignin (木质素) is a compound found in the trees that paper is made from. As a book gets     2    , compounds like lignin start to break down, and they give off chemicals that we can smell.

But why do people like the smell so much? Because they think the smell of old books is similar to the smell of chocolate. Scientists created an “old book smell” using fibers (纤维)     3     a 1928 French book. Seventy-nine people smelled the old book smell,     4     they weren’t told what it was. They were then asked to describe it. A large number of people said it smelled like chocolate. Others said it smelled like coffee. This shouldn’t be a     5    : coffee and chocolate also come from materials having lignin.

Lignin might give books their sweet smell, but it also makes the pages yellow, and books today use paper with less lignin. This might let     6     stay white longer, but won’t make the smell as sweet in the future.

Just ignore (忽视) what books are made from. Let’s do as an old saying goes, “Book smell enriches the soul, reading enriches life”.

Traditional Chinese Clothes Types

Each country in the world has its own traditional clothes. The Hanfu, qipao(cheongsam), Tang suit, and Zhongshan suit(Mao suit)are the     1     types of traditional Chinese clothing.

Hanfu


The Hanfu is the     2     of China’s traditional clothes. It is said that over 4,000 years ago, Huangdi’s consort(妃子), Leizu, made cloth with     3    . It was improved throughout several dynasties. Until the Han Dynasty, the Hanfu became the     4     clothing of the Han people. It also had a far-reaching influence(影响)on neighboring     5     countries, such as Korea, Japan, and Vietnam.

Qipao


The qipao came from the women’s changpao(long gown)of the Qing Dynasty. The Manchu people were also     6     the Qi people by the Han people. From then     7     their long gown was named qipao(Qi gown).

Tang Suit


The Tang suit often refers to a type of Chinese jacket rather than the clothing of the Tang Dynasty. This name came from the overseas Chinese. As the Tang Dynasty was famous and powerful in the world,     8     called the overseas Chinese people “the Tang people” and the clothes they     9     were called “Tang suits”(which has been translated as Tangzhuang).

Zhongshan Suit


The Zhongshan suit, also     10     as the Mao suit overseas, is a type of men’s jacket. It was first advocated(提倡)by Sun Zhongshan.
