25、 I walked to my seat without a word.I glanced back to see if Reed Harrington was laughing with the rest. That would be last straw. To my relief, Reed was studying and did not seem to be aware of it. I didnt know why I considered Reed my friend. Maybe just because he was a good two inches taller than

26、 I.“Take that seat,” Mr. McCarthy told the newcomer, pointing to the only empty one, in the back of the room.Carlos smiled broadly. “But I need a couple of dictionaries.” Again the class laughed, but now they were laughing with Carlos, not at him.

40、cross the United States there are several places where two independent towns grew together to become one citybut kept both their names.Winston-Salem is one of them. Its a mid-sized city in whats called the plateau(high land), between the Atlantic Coast and the inland mountains in the state of North

41、Carolina. The Winston part is a relatively new place, founded early last century. Its home to the nations biggest open-air tobacco market.The giant R.J.Reynolds Tobacco Companys headquarters is in Winston-Salem and Winston is the name of one of Reynolds best-known cigarette brands. Fast-growing Wins

42、ton soon surrounded the much older town of Salem, so in 1913, people in the area voted to combine them into a single place.From historical and tourist point of view, Salem, or Old Salem, as its called today, is the interesting and unusual part of town.Salem was founded in the 1700s by the Moravians.

43、 They spoke German, and their community was religiously based, with single men and single women living apart in separate dormitories. The Moravians greatly valued womens work and brainpower. In fact, one of the nations oldest boarding schools for young women-the MoraviansSalem Academy founded in 177

44、2-is still in operation.Over the years, Salem lost its Moravian character. That all changed, though, when a nonprofit group began to rehabilitate the historic area. These days Old Salem is whats called a living history museum, with exhibits, music, and tours of 18th -century houses, taverns and Mora

45、vian dormitory buildings just seven blocks from the tallest skyscraper in Winston-Salem.The historic community is booming again. Just as R.J.Reynolds is taking in millions of dollars making cigarettes across town, Old Salem is generating about $15 million a year in tourism revenue and donations.64.

46、From the passage we can know that _. A. Winston-Salem is the name of a city B. Salem is home to the tobacco market C. the city Winston-Salem has two names D.

48、h 6 is closest in meaning to “_”. A. reconstruct B. evaluate C. enlarge D. decorateDAs they migrate (遷徙), butterflies and moths choose the winds they want to fly with, and they change their body positions if they start floating in the wrong direction. This new finding suggests that insects may emplo

49、y some of the same methods that birds use for traveling long distances. Scientists have long thought that insects were simply at the mercy of the wind.Fascinating as their skills of flight are, migrating behavior has been difficult to study in insects because many long distant trips happen thousands

50、 of feet above ground. Only recently have scientists developed technologies that can detect such little creatures at such great heights.To their surprise, though, the insects werent passive travelers in the winds. In autumn, for example, most light winds blew from the east, but the insects somehow s

51、ought out ones that carried them south and they positioned themselves to navigate directly to their wintering homes.Even in the spring, when most winds flowed northward, the insects didnt always go with the flow. If breezes werent blowing in the exact direction they wanted to go, the insects changed

52、 their body positions to compensate. Many migrating birds do the same thing.The study also found, butterflies and moths actively flew within the air streams that pushed them along. By adding flight speeds to wind speeds, the scientists calculated that butterflies and moths can ravel as fast as 100 k

53、ilometers an hour. The findings may have real-world applications. With climate warming, migrating insects are growing in number. Knowing how and when these pests move could help farmers decide when to spray their crops.68. Whats the main idea of the text? A. Insects migrate with the seasons. B. The

54、wind helps insects greatly in migrating. C. Windsurfing insects have real direction. D. Scientists have trouble in observing insects.69. Scientists originally thought that _.

We can learn form the text that _. A. insects fly in the way birds do B. insects travel more easily in autumn C. insects never posi
