Louis Armstrong had two famous nick names．Some people called him Bagamo．They said his mouth looked like a large bag．Musicians often called him Pops, as a sign of respect for his influence on the world of music．
Born in 1901 in New Orleans, he grew up poor, but lived among great musicians ．Jazz was invented in the city a few years before his birth．Armstrong often said, “Jazz and I grew up together．’’
Armstrong showed a great talent for music when he was taught to play the cornet（短号）at a boy’s home．In his late teens, Armstrong began to live the life of a musician．He played in parades, clubs, and on the steamboats that traveled on the Mississippi River．At that time, New Orleans was famous for the new music of jazz and was home to many great musicians ．Armstrong leaned from the older musicians and soon became respected as their equal．
In 1922 he went to Chicago．There, the tale of Louis Armstrong begins．From then until the end of his life, Armstrong was celebrated and loved wherever he went．Armstrong had no equal when it came to playing the American popular song．
His cornet playing had a deep humanity（仁爱）and warmth that caused many listeners to say ,“Listening to Pops just makes you feel good all over．”He was the father of the jazz style and also one of the best-known and most admired people in the world．His death, on July 6, 1971,was headline news around the world．

Of all the animals in the animal kingdom, which one （except man）is the cleverest?
There are several ways of measuring the intelligence of animals．In one test a scientist sets three same cans on a table．While the animal watches, he brings it back to see if it remembers which can has the food．No smelling is allowed; the animal must go directly to the correct can or it fails．
This is called a delayed-response test．The idea is to find out how long an animal’s memory can keep information．The scientists would try showing the cans to the animal one hour later, or two hours, or even a full day later．They discovered that chimpanzees and elephants have the best memory, and are able to remember the correct can for at least twenty hours．No other animal is close．Dogs came next, but they only remembered for nine hours．
To settle the matter, the scientists designed a huge maze（迷宫）and ran the chimpanzees and elephants through it．The maze was very difficult, with many blind paths and dead ends．It took the chimpanzees ten minutes to find their way out．The elephants needed a half hour．Even allowing for the elephants’ slower rate of speed, the test shows that chimpanzees are the cleverest animals．
From this and other tests, the scientists had the following conclusion: an animal’s intelligence depends on the size of its brain in proportion（比例）to the size of its body．The elephant’s brain weighs about ten pounds．But this is only 1/600th of its 6000-pound body．A proportion to its body size, the chimpanzee has four times as much brain as the elephant-more brain for less body ．The chimp is the champ!
60．The delayed-response test is designed to test an animal’s_____

One day when he rushed home from school and threw himself into his mother’s arms, he cried out bitterly,“A boy, a big boy…．．called me---a f-…freak．”She sighed．Knowing that his life was to be endless of heartbreaks．
He grew up, handsome for his misfortune．A favorite with his fellows students, he might have been class president but for that．He developed a gift for literature and music, The boy’s father had a talk with the family doctor．Could nothing be done? “ I believe we could transplant on a pair of outer ears, if they could be donated,” the doctor decided．So the search began for a person who would make such a sacrifice for a young man．Two years went by．Then,＂You are going to the hospital，son．Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need．But it’s a secret．” said the father．
The operation was brilliantly successful．His talents blossomed into genius．school and college became a series of successes．Later he married and entered the diplomatic（外交）service．“But I must know!” he urged his father．“Who gave so much for me? I could never do enough for him．”
“I do not believe you could,”said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet．” The years kept the secret, but the day did come… one of the darkest days that ever pass through a son．He stood with his father over his mother’s casket（灵柩）．slowly and tenderly, the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick, reddish- brown hair to let out the secret．

I was walking along the main street of a small seaside town in the north of England looking for somewhere to make a phone call．My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to contact the AA Company．Low grey clouds were gathering across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea which nearly threw me off my feet every time I crossed one of the
side streets．It had rained in the night and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the street．I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat．
There was no sign of a call box, nor was there anyone at that early hour whom I could ask．I had thought I might find a shop open selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his rounds, but the town was completely dead．The only living thing I saw was a thin frightened cat outside a small restaurant．
Then suddenly I found what I was looking for．There was a small post office, and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street．Next to it was the town’s only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint．I hurried forward, but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside．He was fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat．I could not see his face and he didn’t raise his head at the sound of my footsteps．Carefully, I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait for my turn．It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the box call door．
68．At what time was the story set?
A．An early winter morning B．A cold winter afternoon
C．An early summer morning D．A windy summer afternoon
69．Which of the following words best describe the writ er’s impression of the town?
A．cold and frightening B．dirty and crowded
C．empty and dead D．unusual and unpleasant

Citizens of our city are now trying to make it a civilized one．The government has taken many steps to better the housing conditions and beautify the city, making it a more pleasing place to live in．owing to the hard work op the police, the law-and-order situation has been much improved．To our joy, the public order is far better now．For example, the phenomenon that some taxi drivers and bus drivers don’t obey the traffic rules has decreased．
However, there are some citizens who should improve their personality．I am sad to find some people spit on the floor, or throw rubbish everywhere．Some even doodle on the walls of the public buildings．
Even though there is some disharmony, I hopefully look forward to the day when my city becomes a really civilized one．Then, everyone can enjoy their life and work in such an attractive city．。
