16、ng through the countryside was always fun: There were animals to see, people to visit, and chocolate cookies if you knew where to stop, and Dad did.On Dads final day of work, it took him well into the evening to complete his rounds because at least one member from each family was waiting at their ma
17、ilboxes to thank him for his friendship and his years of service. Mailboxes were sometimes used for things other than mail. One note left in a mailbox read, “Nat, take these eggs to Marian; shes baking a cake and doesnt have any eggs.” A young girl wrote letters but had no stamps, so she left a few
18、buttons on the envelope in the mailbox; Dad paid for the stamps. One businessman used to leave large amounts of cash in his mailbox for Dad to take to the bank. Once, the amount came to $32,000.A dozen years ago, when I traveled back to my hometown on the sad occasion of Dads death, the mailboxes al
19、ong the way reminded me of some of his stories. I thought I knew them all, but that wasnt the case.As I drove home, I noticed two lamp poles, which supported wooden boxes about four feet off the ground. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those boxes. I made a turn at the corner
20、and drove past the post office and across the railroad tracks to our house.Frank Townsend, Dads postmaster and great friend for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.At one point Frank looked at me with tears in his eyes. “What are we going to do about the letters thi

It was your dad who answered all those letters every year.”I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasnt hard for me to imagine D
22、ad sitting at the old oak table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several of the people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families.For me

But we still wonder where that strange feeling comes from.In fact, this is one of the ways that were tricked by time, according to the websit
28、e All That Is Interesting. The website lists several wrong impressions we often have about time. Lets have a look.First of all, emotions affect our time-keeping abilities. Negative emotions, especially anxiety and boredom, make time seem longer because they make us concentrate more on the passage of
29、 time. However, when we are enjoying ourselves, we pay more attention to what we are doing and are likely to lose track of (失去对的意识) time.Here is another example. In 2007, a group of scientists carried out a test. In the test, people fell 50 meters into a safety net and were then asked about their ex
30、perience. Although the experience took shorter than 3 seconds, the people thought it was much longer than it actually was.This is because of the way our bodies reply to danger, according to the scientists. Our bodies produce a chemical called adrenaline ( 肾 上 腺 素 ) when we are faced with danger. It
31、allows us to concentrate better so that we can stay alive. As a result, we are able to remember far more details ( 细 节 )over a short period of time, which makes it seem like time is going more slowly.Another situation when we make mistakes about time is when we take afternoon naps (午觉). Have you eve
32、r had trouble telling what time it is after a long nap? Thats because the best amount of time for a nap is 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, you enter a new stage of sleep called slow-wave sleep. If you wake up mid-way in this stage, it will take a while before you can correctly perceive (感知) time again
33、.Yes, time can be mysterious and there is no way to control it. So, perhaps the best thing to do is to make good use of every minute.1According to the passage, what possibly makes people feel so long ?Aweekends and holidays Bweekends and workCclasses and work Dholidays and work2Which is NOT the wron
34、g impressions that we often have about time according to the the website listing?Anegative emotions Bpositive emotionsCadrenaline Dscientists3According to the passage, in which situation do we make mistakes about time?AWe have many problems left in the test paper, but the time is up.BWe have a math

But much of the time snails dont move at all. Theyre in their shells -sleeping .Hot sun will dry out a sn
39、ails body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into its shell and closes the opening with a thin cover. Then it goes to sleep. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So whenever it rains, it goes inside its shell house and goes to sleep. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. I
40、t can take a short sleep. Or it can sleep for days at a time. And it spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep. In spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out of from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. It cant see very well. Its eyes, at the ends of
41、 the top feelers are very weak. But its sense of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to the new greens. Then the snails little mouth goes to work. A snails mouth is no longer than the point of a pin(针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are so small that you cant see them. But they do their w
42、ork. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out. And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.Mostly, a snail looks for food at night .But on cloudy days it eats in the daytime. It eats all day long. A snail can go on eating for hours and never feel full.1A snail_.A

The tank is made of clear glass. People can look through it. They can see inside the tank and watch the fish.The
46、fish need room. They must not be crowded. Fish need oxygen(O2) to breathe. Fish get it from water in the tank. There must be enough water for all fish. So the size of the tank is important.In the tank many people put small plants that are good for fish. They give oxygen to the water. Plants help in other ways, too. Fish can nibble（轻咬）on the plants. They hide among the plants and sleep, lay eggs there.The plants need light. Most fish need light too. The tank may be put near a window. It will get light there. Another place might be better, th
