There are always things that we don’t know how to explain. Crop circles(麥田圖案) are just one of them. They were first found in England in the early 1980s. By 1990, many people had heard of crop circles. About 250 are found each year, and thousands have been reported. They have appeared in many countries of the world, including England, the USA, Canada, Australia, South Africa, India, and Germany. However, most of these circles have been found in Southern England. Most of them appear during the summer.
Nobody knows how the circles are made. Many people have tried, but failed to make circles like the ones found. The circles are usually very carefully and beautifully made. People haven’t been able to make the circles with such perfect shapes. Therefore, some people believe that these circles are made by aliens. In some places, small bright balls of white light have been seen in the crops.

Do you know that every person has two bags? One is in front and the other is on his back. The one that he wears in front is very small and the one that is worn on his back is very big. People know all about the bags that are worn in front but very little about the back bags. Tommy, for example, often takes a quick look at the bag he wears in front, and he sees that it has all the faults of other people－John does not work hard, Paul is never on time, Dick does something illegal, Anna wastes a lot of money, and Helen is too
proud. Tommy feels that he is the greatest and the best because there is nothing that is his. But the other bag is worn on his back, so he cannot look into it. He does not know himself has all the faults－not working hard, not being on time, not following the rules sometimes, wasting money, and being too proud. The back bag is big but not enough to put all his faults in. It’s a pity that we can not sometimes change the places of the two bags. So we can not find out how big our own faults are.
58. Which is true about the bags?
(A)The back bag tells us something about ourselves. (B)The front bag is better than the back bag. (C)People without any fault won’t carry any bags. (D)People with more faults wear more front bags.
59. Which of the following is true?
(A)People are interested in looking at the black bags. (B)People can not see the bags on the back, so they have no faults. (C)It is very easy for people to notice the faults of others. (D)It is more important for us to know what is in the front bag.
Elephants, the largest living land animals, are one of people’s favorites in the zoo. For a long time, they have been very helpful to people. For example, they carry wood, take people from place to place, and are even used as “living tanks”(活戰車) in the wars.
Although people have worked with elephants for ages, it seemed that they do not know elephants well enough. Some people think it not easy to hurt an elephant because its skin is thick and hard. In fact, this is not true. Sometimes, even though an elephant’s skin is thick―up to 2.5 cm―a needle(針) pushed into an elephant’s skin can be very dangerous. Another wrong idea about elephants is that they are afraid of mice. This is not true, either. In fact, elephants have such poor eyesight that they usually can not see a mouse even if one comes very close to them. Besides, if a person has a good memory, people will say that he has an elephant memory. However, up to now, no study shows that elephants have better memories than any other animals. People also believe that when it is time for elephants to die, they will hide themselves in a so-called “elephant graveyard.” Hunters often try to find such places in order to get ivory(象牙), or elephant teeth, but few people really find places like that. It is likely that when elephants are old or get sick, they will find deep, secret caves(洞穴) so that they can stay there until they get better or die.
60. Which of the following statements is true about elephants?
(A)Elephants are afraid of mice. (B)Elephants can not see very clearly. (C)Elephants have very poor memory. (D)Elephants never go to caves.
61. What is the main idea of the article?
(A)Elephants are men’s best friends. (B)Different countries have different elephants. (C)Elephants are the biggest living land animals in the world. (D)Some of our ideas about elephants are not correct.
62. What is the possible meaning of the word “graveyard”?
(A)A place for burying dead bodies. (B)A place for animals to play in. (C)A place with yards and flowers. (D)A place where elephants are safe.
