Passage 1

One day five men who were camping in the Perryson Mountains saw a group of huge apelike(類人猿)creatures coming out of the woods.They ran hurriedly to a small house and

locked themselves inside. While they were in, the creatures attacked them by throwing rocks against the walls of the house. After several hours, these strange hairy giants went back into the

woods, leaving big footprints behind.

As soon as the men returned to the town, they told the people of their adventure. However, it was only accepted by a few people who heard about footprints of human-like animals

The five men, however, were not the first people to have seen Bigfoot. Long before their

experience, it was said that a race of apelike animals had been living in the neighboring mountain for centuries. The local people called them Sasquatch.

In 1978,the workmen who were building a road through the jungles(叢林)often found huge footprints in the earth around their camp.

Then in 1987, Ron Patten, a film maker who was interested in finding Bigfoot, went into the jungles with a friend. While riding, they were suddenly thrown off from their horses. Patten saw a tall apelike animal standing not far away. He managed to shoot seven rolls of film of the hairy creature before it disappeared in the woods. When Patten's film was shown to the public, not many people believed his story.

In another incident,Roy Bruce,a math teacher and also an experienced hunter,spotted a similar creature.He saw the animal clearly through the telescopic lens(望遠(yuǎn)瞄準(zhǔn)器)of his gun He said the creature looked more like a human than an animal Later many other people also found deep footprints in the same area.In spite of regular reports of sightings and footprints,most experts still do not believe that Bigfoot really exists

Passage 3

A couple of months ago, Andre Dickson, an older kid who lived next door to me, threw a ball down the back of my shirt when we were sitting on the steps eating a sandwich. That night at dinner I told my big brother Louis about it. "We' ll get him back for it! he said. And then we came up with a plan to do just that!

We knew Andre was scared of snakes. So Louis and I went to the nearby woods and caught two small grass snakes and brought them back to our house. We knew we'd see Andre the next day because we had a large screen TV and Andre liked to watch his favorite football team — the Woodsworth-on the big screen.

The next day Andre called and asked if he could come over and watch the Woodsworth on our TV. "Sure,"we told him. Then my brother Louis and I went to work putting our plan in place!

When Andre got there, we just hung out and everything was normal-although every once in a while Andre would look at me and we'd have to hold back our smiles. Andre sat where he usually did, in the big chair, the one with several big cushions. He liked to throw pillows at the screen whenever one of his favorite players made a bad play -which happened this day too.

But this time, as Andre picked up a cushion, just as he was about to throw it, he noticed a snake

swinging from the cushion. And in that same instant, the little snake dropped onto his feet, where, to his horror, yet another little snake was making its way across his leg. Andre let out a terrible

scream and jumped ten feet off the chair! He ran out of our house so fast! Louis and I nearly died whilc laughing-as we still do whenever either of us brings it up

Passage 4

We all know that stores where you can buy medicines when you' re sick are fairly recent inventions. But how and when did people get medicine in the ancient times? Scientists think the earliest time could be traced back to 200,000 years ago, but the earliest drugstore is only 300 or

400 years from now. People got medicine from nature, mostly from plants. In fact, the study of plants started out as a section of medicine. To this day, many people around the world still get their medicine from plants.

Plants are full of chemicals, ones that they produce themselves. They don't make them for us to use medicinally. Plants can't move around like we animals do, so they use chemicals to accomplish a lot of their most basic life functions, everything from fighting off fierce animals to communicating, and to producing young.

Long ago, humans learned that these same chemicals affect our bodies. Some make us sick or even kill us, but many are beneficial. Early people must have discovered which was which through trial and error, and also by watching animals. Scientists know that some animals treatthemselves with plants when they are sick. Bears in North America have been observed to dig up the roots of a plant, chew the roots, and then spread it all over their fur

Over time, humans developed great skill at diagnosing conditions and knowing just which plants to prescribe and how to prepare. Much knowledge about those plants wasn't written down, so with the arrival of modern medicine, some of what people used to know was lost.

Medicinal plants come in all shapes and sizes. Some grow at the tops of mountains; others in forests; still others, in deep ocean. Probably some are in your yard, fields, or even narrow gaps in

sidewalks. Many of the plants you have regularly in food and drink have medicinal elements.

Who knows there is a different kind of drugstore-a vital and ancient oneall around us?

46.The ancients knew about medicinal plants?

A.700 years ago

B.400 years ago?

C.300 years ago?

D.200,000 years ago

48.The early people acquired knowledge of medicinal plants by?

A.digging up plants?

B.keeping animals as pets?

C.observing animals?

D.cooking plants at home

49.What do we learn from the last paragraph?

B.Medicinal plants are only available in food.

C.Medicinal plants can be found in drugstores.
