10、. When it comes, people from around the world, including 5,000 in the small town today, watch this tongue-twisting(发音饶舌的) small town for a sign from one groundhog that supposedly predicts when that years spring will arrive. If its a cloudy day outside when the groundhog pops from its cave, then spri
11、ng will arrive early that year. However, if it is sunny outside, the groundhog will supposedly be scared by its own shadow, hiding underground for six more weeks of cold weather. Of course, Punxsutawney Phils prediction is no more able to guarantee the extended forecast than your local weatherman. A
12、BC News reports that an analysis by the National Climate Data Center found that Phils predictions are more often wrong than right. Philis is also found to have made some unpleasant predictions. Ever since 1887, he has predicted 99 extended winters and just 16 early springs .Nine of the years predict

17、 The National Climate Data Center B. A German tradition C. A tongue-twisting small town D. Groundhog Day weather forecasting B B Mosquitoes have an extraordinary ability to target humans far away and fly straight to their unprotected skin. Regrettably, mosquitoes can do more than cause an itchy(发痒的)
18、wound. Some mosquitoes spread several serious diseases,including Dengue, yellow fever and malaria. Over one million people worldwide die from these diseases each year. New research now shows how mosquitoes choose who to bite. Mosquitoes need blood to survive. They are attracted to human skin and bre
19、ath. They smell the carbon dioxide gas,which all mammals breathe out. This gas is the main way for mosquitoes to know that a warm-blooded creature is nearby. But mosquitoes also use their eyes and sense of touch. Michael Dickinson is a professor at the California Institute of Technology. His researc
20、h shows how these small insects,with even smaller brains,use three senses to find a blood meal. Michael Dickinsons team used plumesa material that rises into the air of carbon dioxide gas into a wind tunnel. They then used cameras to record the mosquitoes. The insects followed the plume. Then,the sc
21、ientists placed dark objects on the lighter colored floor and walls of the tunnel. Mr. Dickinson said,at first,the mosquitoes showed no interest in the objects at all. “What was quite striking and quite surprising is that the mosquitoes fly back and forth for hours. These are hungry females and they
22、 completely ignore the objects on the floor and wall of the tunnel. But the moment they get a hit of CO2,they change their behavior quite obviously and now would become attracted to these little visual blobs (斑 点).” This suggested to the researchers that a mosquitos sense of smell is more important
23、in the search for food. Once mosquitoes catch a smell of a human or animal,they also follow visual signals. 25.What do mosquitoes mainly use to find their targets? A Sense of smell. B Sense of touch. C Sense of sight. D Smart brains. 26.The first response of the mosquitoes to the objects in the expe

26、 child of family values. Often we believe that our child will pick up on our values if they live in the same home. While they may pick up many of our values, parents need to remember they are not the only influence in their childs life. These outside values often compete with family values for your
27、child s attention. If we do not make a conscious effort to instill our values into our children, they may not get instilled at all. I wish I had learned that lesson a little earlier. I thought if I lived my values for my children they would pick them up and make their own. Sometimes this happened an
28、d sometimes it didnt. I often see twenty-something “kids” who have no faith in many of the values of their family in favor of the values of their friends. Children will often pick up the negative you show quicker than the positive, so the positive things need extra focus to set them. Some of the inf
29、luences your children face every day include their church, their school, their friends, any clubs or sporting groups they are part of and more. Kids spend many hours a day at school and with their friends. Sometimes in the business of life, we suppose our children will obtain that foundation we want
30、 for them. Instilling a foundation of family values to sustain(维持) your child requires more than living it in front of them. That is important, but building up your child with this important foundation must become intentional. That means we plan times to gather as a family. We plan activities togeth
31、er that show the values we want to pass on. We talk about our values; we live our values; we discuss the values of others and how they differ from ours; we constantly look for opportunities and make our own opportunities to share these values in word or deed with our children. Family values give our
32、 children a foundation to build upon. It helps them know they are loved and gives them a sense of belongings. Upon this sure foundation, they can spread their wings and grow to become parents who share these same values with their own children. 29. The underlined word “instill our values into” in th

36、udents, but thats not the main reason Matt Bambrough, the creative director at UVU, came up with an idea to paint a “texting lane” on a staircase leading up to the Wellness Center. According to Bambrough, its first and foremost a design projectthe texting lane was a tongue-in-cheek(戏谑) reference to
37、the college-wide epidemic(流行)of kids walking around with their faces buried in their iPhones. “You have 1824-year-olds walking down the hall with smart phones. Youre almost bound to run into someone somewhere; it s something were dealing with in this day and age,” Bambrough said. “But preventing col
38、lisions isnt the reason we did it we did it to arouse the students attention. Its meant to be there for people to look at and enjoy.” Still, when talking to Utah Valley students, it sounds like texting and walking can be quite the annoyance. Robbie Poffenberger, an assistant news editor at the UVU R
39、eview, said that most collisions he witnesses aren t human-on-human; rather, its generally human-on-inanimate-object. “They walk into barrierschairs on the side of the hallway, or railings,” Poffenberger said, “Im sure theyre fairly embarrassed.” 33.

The Chinese host makes great, sweeping arm movements that go over large sections of the table, passing over both food and friends alike. 37 However, it leaves many foreigners at a loss for what to do. In my childhood home, dinner was enjoyed with low voices, and the topics that we could disc
44、uss were very limited. 38 If I had to leave the table to use the toilet, I had to excuse myself without mentioning what it was that I was going to do. “May I be excused, please? I need to wash my hands.” I would say. My mother would say, “Sure.” My father would often play a joke on me by saying, “ 3
