You can survive but you cant really come alive,” says Yohannes. “The ability to read is the basis for greater productivity, better health and longer life. Even though the chil
22、dren lack material goods, with books they can imagine a world of possibilities.” Yohannes first worked in the childrens section of the main library in America. Surrounded by books he had never seen before, he realized how joyful and imaginative childrens literature is. He says, “I always thought of
23、Ethiopia. But how could I bring childrens books to my home country when it had almost no libraries to keep the books in?” He contacted Jane Kurtz, a writer born in America but brought up in Ethiopia, and together they created the Donkey Mobile Library.

C Trees should only be pruned (修剪) when there is a good and clear reason for doing so and, the number of such re
39、asons is small. Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrown and unwanted branches, and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way. First, pruning may be done to make sure that t
40、rees have desired shape or size. The object may be to get a tree of the right height, and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches, which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape. Secondly, pruning may be done to make the tree healthier. You may cut out diseased or de
41、ad wood, or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus cause wounds. The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of air. One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an
42、 easy entry for disease, but it is a wound that will heal (愈合). Often there is a race between the healing and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die, so that there is a period when the tree is at risk. It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far as possibl
43、e. It is important to make the area, which has been pruned, smooth and clean, for healing will be slowed down by roughness. You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it with one of the materials available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose. Pruning is
44、 usually done in winter, for then you can see the shape of HLLYBQ 整理 供“高中试卷网（http:/sj.fjjy.org） ” 7 the tree clearly without interference (妨碍) from the leaves and also it is very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed. If this does happen, it is, of course, impossible to paint them properly. 39.
45、 Why should pruning be done? A. To make the tree grow taller. B. To improve the shape of the tree. C. To get rid of the small branches. D. To make the small branches thicker. 40. Trees become unhealthy if the gardener _. . A. helps a wound to dry. B. covers a rough surface. C. damages some of the sm
46、all side branches. D. allows too many branches to grow in the middle. 41. Why is a special material painted on the tree? A. To help a wound to dry. B. To cover a rough surface. C. To prevent disease entering a wound. D. To make a wound smooth. 42. The writer wrote this passage_ A. to introduce some
47、common knowledge of pruning. B. to discuss different methods of pruning. C. to explain how trees develop disease. D. to give practical instruction for pruning a tree. D People born in the winter are more likely to suffer mental health disorders, according to a recent study carried out by researchers
48、 at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee. Researchers raised baby mice from birth to weaning（断奶） in either “summer” light cycles of 16 hours of light and eight hours of dark or “winter” cycles of eight hours of light and 16 hours of dark. A third group experienced 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark a day, Then half the winter mice stayed in a winter cycle, while half switched to a summer schedule. The summer mice were similarly split. The mice raised in equal periods of light and dark were split into three groups, one of which stayed on the 12-hour schedule, one of w
