閱讀理解

One large dinosaur hid in the thick jungle （熱帶雨林）. With small， hungry eyes he watched a larger dinosaur， about 90 feet long！ It was eating grass by a lake.

The one in the jungle stood 20 feet tall on his powerful back legs. His two front legs were short， with sharp claws on the feet. His teeth were like long knives.

There was only one hope for the grass-eating dinosaur. Even though he was three times as large as his enemy， he was not a fighter. He could only try to get away， into deep water， where he could be safe.

The grass-eater tried to move fast. But the enemy was faster. His three-toed footprints show that he came closer and closer.

We cant be sure how the fight ended. We can only tell by the animals footprints that the fight did take place. The mud where the two dinosaurs walked has turned into stone.

Footprints are not all that tell us about dinosaurs. Their bones and teeth have also been found. We even have some of their eggs in museums.

Scientists know how to fit a dinosaurs bones together. Then they can tell how the animal may have looked. From its teeth they know whether it ate meat or grass.

Dinosaurs were of many sizes and shapes. Some were as small as chickens. But all of them had very small brains.

Millions of years ago， the dinosaurs ruled the earth. Since then， there have been no dinosaurs. What happened to them？

We know they did not all die at once. It may have taken a few million years for all of them to die.

In the days of the dinosaurs， the whole earth was warm and wet. There were many green jungles. But the earth changes slowly. When parts of the earth became cold and dry， the jungles were becoming less and less. Then dinosaurs could not find enough to eat. This must be one reason why the dinosaurs died out.

1. According to the passage， the grass-eating dinosaurs ___ .

A. had three-toed feet

B. were much smaller than the meat-eaters

C. were three times as large as the meat-eaters

D. had two short front legs， with sharp claws on the feet

2. Which of the following is true about dinosaurs？

A. Dinosaurs had very big brains.

B. All the dinosaurs were meat-eaters.

C. Dinosaurs were the same size and various kinds.

D. Some dinosaurs tore their enemy with long knife-like teeth.

3. The appearance of dinosaurs would be repaired if ___ .

A. scientists research their teeth

B. a full-size picture was kept in our mind

C. their bones were well fitted together by scientific method

D. their footprints were entirely taken from the stone for research

4. One reason why the dinosaurs all died out may be ___ .

A. the reduction of jungles

B. the fights among the dinosaurs

C. the occurence of some diseases

D. the appearance of the global warming

閱讀表達（閱讀下面短文，并按照題目要求用英語回答問題。）

Confidence： youve either got it or you havent， right？ Wrong. Most people learn confidence as they go through life.

Even if you are shaking like a leaf on the inside， youll make a lasting impression if you can come across as confident. Here are some confidence-building tips.

Fake （假裝） it. If you can pretend that you feel confident when you dont and keep on doing so， your fake confidence will soon turn into real confidence. It only takes a few repetitions of an activity for it to become a habit—so get into the habit of pretending to be confident.

Think it. For an immediate encouragement to your self-esteem （自尊心）， recall three things that give you positive emotions. It could be a great compliment somebody paid you， a special time when you felt happy and popular， or when you really excelled （勝過別人） at something. Bringing them to mind will help you to feel good immediately—and when you feel good， you have greater confidence.

Focus it. Difficult situations， such as interviews or new jobs， can make you feel shy. If youre feeling anxious about yourself， stop thinking about yourself and focus on something else. It could be that you focus on something normal， like the view out of the window， or that you pay more attention to the task at hand—getting the job！ Either way， youll feel less awkward （尷尬的）.

Talk it. If you keep telling yourself that youre not good at something， youll start to believe it. Next time you blame yourself， ask yourself whether youd talk to your friends like that. So quit being negative and start recognizing and appreciating the things you are good at.

Walk it. Great posture can signal great confidence. Walk with a purposeful big step， walk with your back straight and with your head held up high！

1. How can you make your fake confidence turn into real confidence？ （within 10 words）

2. What should you do when you feel anxious about yourself？ （within 9 words）

3. What will you think yourself if you keep telling yourself that youre not good at something？ （within 9 words）

4. What may great posture show to people？ （within 7 words）

5. How many tips are talked about in the passage？ （1 word）

閱讀理解

Although it has never been seen， almost everyone is familiar with the legendary unicorn （獨角獸）. Descriptions of unicorns have been found dating from ancient times.

According to the legend， anyone attempting to catch a unicorn had to be extremely careful as it has a reputation for being very fierce. A clever trick suggested by unicorn-trappers， in order to catch a unicorn without being hurt by its horn， was for the hunter to stand in front of a tree and then to move quickly behind it as the unicorn rushed forward and attacked them. Hopefully， the creature could then be caught when its horn was stuck in the tree.

When used as a drinking-cup， the unicorns horn was said to have the power to offer protection against poison. It was believed that nobody could be harmed by drinking the thing that is contained in a unicorns horn. In 1789， the French court was said to have used cups made of unicorn horn in order to protect the king. In addition， the horn was said to have medicinal value （價值）， so that it could be sold for more than ten times the price of the same weight of gold. What， then， was unicorn horn？ We know at times the rhino （犀牛） was confused with this legendary creature. A drinking-cup supposedly made of unicorn horn was discovered to be made of the horn of a rhino.

A. fight with them in the woods

2. Which of the following is TRUE of the unicorn？

3. The last paragraph is mainly about ___ .

D. the comparison between the unicorn horn and the rhino horn
