Have you ever seen people dance? Some dances are fast and others are slow .People's feet always move when they dance .They keep on moving until the music stops.
People have enjoyed dancing for a very long time .This story is of a different kind of dance .It is the dance of bees（蜜蜂） .
If you have ever watched bees ,you know that they are very clever. They also work hard looking for food and bringing it back to their home .
The home of the bees is called a bee hive. Here hundreds even thousands of bees live. They work day and night building small walls of wax .There they make their honey . This is the same honey that we eat.
Where does the honey come from ? Bees live on food from flowers .Have you seen bees flying around a flower garden? When a bee rests on a flower ,it tries go to the centre of it .There it takes in as much food as its body can hold .Then it flies to take the food back to the hive.
At the hive, bees changes this flower food into honey .Then they fly away for more food .
How do the bees know where to find the best food in the sweetest flowers? One bee acts as a guide. When it discovers good flowers ,it flies back to the hive and tells the others .It does this by dancing for them .
The bee dances on one side .This tells the other bees which way to go to find the flowers .But that is not all .The bee dances for some time .And the length of its dance tells the other bees how far they must fly to reach the flowers.
When the bees see the dance ,they know where the flowers are .They fly away and return with more food for the hive.
Sometimes we hear the music of the bees as they fly around .But few people have ever seen them dance. Yet without that dance we might never have sweet honey to eat.

Education is not an end , but a means to an end. In other words ,we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them .Our purpose is to fit them for life.
In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable(时兴的）to think that by free education for
all--whether rich or poor , clever or stupid --one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees ,they refuse to do what they think "low "work and , in fact ,work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries .But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated , farmer is far more important than that of a professor, we can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets
and took the rubbish away from our houses , we should get terrible diseases in our towns...
In fact , when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life , it means that we must be educated in such a way that , firstly each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and ,
secondly that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society , and that is very bad to be ashamed of one's work . Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.

Recently ,a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called "Money and the Meaning of Life .He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think .One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week .From the way they spend their money , they can see what they really value in life.
He says our relation with others often become clearly defined when money enters the picture .You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends .But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money .If he does ,it brings something to the relationship if he doesn't .
This person may say that he has a certain feeling , but if it is not carried out in the money world ,there is something less real about it .
Since money is so important to us ,we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important .The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book.
Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich , because you are a self-made man ?
Answer :The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect . I'm nothing .I don't know much

In his book ,the professor uncovered an important need in modern society :to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world ,but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.

As a result of pollution ,Lake Erie ,on the borders of the U. S. A. and Canada, is now without any living things .
Pollution in water is not simply a matter of "poisons " killing large numbers of fish overnight. Very often the effects of pollution are not noticed for many months or years because the first organisms(生物体)to be affected are either plants or planktons (浮游生物).But these organisms are the food of fish and birds and other creatures .When this food disappears , the fish and birds die too. In this way a whole food chain can be wiped out ,and it is not until dead fish and water birds are seen at the river's edge or on the seashore that people realize what is happening .
Where do the substances(物质)which pollute the water come from? There are two main sources??sewage(污水)and industrial waste. As more detergent(洗涤剂)is used in the home ,so more of it is finally put into our rivers ,lake and seas .Detergents harm water birds dissolving (分解)the natural substances which keep their feathers waterproof . Sewage itself , if it is not properly treated ,makes the water dirty and prevents all forms of life in rivers and the sea from receiving the oxygen they need .Industrial waste is even more harmful since there are many highly poisonous things in it ,such as copper and lead .
So, if we want to stop this pollution ,the answer is simple :sewage and industrial waste must be made clean before flowing into the water ,It may already be too late to save some rivers and lakes ,but others can still be saved if the correct action is taken at once.
71. Pollution in water is noticed
A. when the first organisms are affected
B. when a good many fish and birds die
C. when poisons are poured into water
D. as soon as the balance of nature is destroyed
72.The living thing die because there is no in the lake or river
A. water B. fish C. poison D. oxygen
73.What is the meaning of "waterproof ", the underlined word in the third paragraph?
A. Full of water .
B. Not allowing water to go through
C. Covered with water.
D. Cleaned by water.
74.Which of the following is harmful according to the passage?
A. Industrial water.
B. Chemicals
C. Water for cleaning .
D. All of the above.
75.The way to stop water pollution is
A. to realize the serious situation clearly
B. to put oxygen into the river
C. to make the water material harmless
D. to make special room in the sea for our rubbish
