One of them is Shirley Temple, who is remembered throughout the world as a little girl who sang and danced in many films.Shirley Temple began to make films at the age of five and she was only nine when she played the part of Heidi. In almost every part of the world where films are seen on television, children and their parents still enjoy Heidi and other films of Shirley Temple. Although she has not appeared in a film for over thirty years, her name is still dear to people of all ages.When Shirley Temple was twenty-one years old, she was already out of the film circle. Twenty years later, many people still thought her as a little girl that Americans have always loved in the films. However, others know her as an excellent woman with knowledge of world problems. One of the people who recognized these important abilities was President Richard Nixon, who sent her work in the United Nations in 1969.Americans are beginning to realize that many film stars have other talents besides acting.51.Ronald Reagan and Shirley Temple ___________.A.were the best of all film starsB.had other talents besides actingC.did not really want to work for public officeD.were good film stars but not good officials52.

Some animals seem able to do this. For example, dogs and cats often find their way home from long distances. To do this they have to use their intelligence. They have to remember and think. But many birds find their way over long distances, too. They travel thousands of miles every year when they move from cold to warm countries. We do not know how they do this but we know that they do not use their intelligence. They do not remember places and directions and then make decisions. Young birds are able to make these journeys without help as soon as they can fly. They are born with this ability. This is not intelligence. We call this “instinct”(本能).Often we cannot be sure whether an animal is acting intelligently or instinctively. When a dog hears a strange noise, it barks. This is instinct. It cannot stop itself from doing this. It does not really know why it is doing this. But supposing a noise is on fire and the dog barks outside its master’s bedroom until he wakes up. Is the d og using its intelligence? Is it solving the problem by waking its master or is it simply barking instinctively because it is afraid? Often we cannot be sure.Many animals, however, can be taught to solve problems, especially when they are given rewards. Rats have been taught to touch a key to get food. Animals in circuses (马戏团) have been taught to do all sorts of tricks to amuse the audience. In all these cases we may say that an animal is using intelligence. It is saying, “If I do this, I will get a rewar d. Therefore, I will do it.” This may be thought of as a low kind of intelligence.56.To find their way home from long distances, cats and dogs have to __________.A. use their instinctB. use their intelligenceC. travel thousands of milesD. get enough food57.Birds don’t have intelligence because _________.A. they cannot find their way homeB. they don’t remember places and direction s and then make decisionsC. young birds are able to flyD. they cannot bear cold weather58.We say a dog is not using its intelligence when barking at a strange noise because___________.A. it cannot control itselfB. it knows how to bark when it has grown upC. we are not sure of itD. it stops people from getting into a house59.

A rat is showing a low kind of intelligence when it touches a key to get food.(C)Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history, greater than other men have achieved. An American university president once said that Einstein had created a new outlook, a new view of the universe (宇宙). It may be some time before we understand fully the identity of time and space and so on, but even ordinary men understand now that the universe is larger thanever thought before.By 1914 the young Einstein had gained world fame. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited opportunities for study, but soon his peace and quiet were broken by the First World War.Einstein hated wars. The misery of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.In the year following World War I honors came to him. He became the head of the Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize, and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism (纳粹主义) when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.61.
