Many different tribes live in the Ituri rain forest of Africa, but the Pygmies are the most unusual. Most of the men are not much more than four feet tall. They weigh only about eighty pounds. The women are even smaller and thinner. But in spite of the fact that they are small, these people are perfectly formed men and women.

It is an exciting experience to visit a Pygmy encampment for the first time. Before you go, you must send word ahead that you are coming. Some friendly native or trader must take the message to the Tiki-Tikis. Otherwise the whole tribe will disappear into the depths of the jungle long before you have come close enough to be welcomed.

The great Ituri rain forest seems cut off from the rest of the earth. There are living, dead, and dying trees on every side. Except where a clearing has been burned and chopped out, a man may live his whole life in the Ituri and never see farther than twenty yards.

It takes sharp eyes to discover the almost hidden path to the Pygmy camp. The path is no wider than a small man’s foot. No sound breaks the silence in this part of the forest. There are no signs of people.

The stranger must walk carefully. What appears to be a bent branch may prove to be a deadly snake. A spotted gold patch of sunlight may be a crouching leopard(豹).

Even the Pygmy camp comes as a surprise. The leafy shelters in which the little people live are hardly three feet high. They look so much like the surrounding undergrowth that they might easily be passed by. These houses contain no furniture of any sort. The beds are merely plantain leaves spread out on the earth floor. There are no cooking pots: food is eaten raw or smoked over a fire. Spears, bows and arrows are the only possessions of these people. When the tribe moves to a new camp there is nothing to carry except these weapons and babies too small to walk.

According to the passage, we can conclude _____.

A. the Pygmies are the shortest tribe worldwide

B. the Pygmies are short but normal in mentality

C. most of the Pygmy men are more than four feet

D. the Pygmies live in the forest of America

Paragraph 2 mainly suggests that the Pygmies ______.

A. are unwilling to communicate with people outside

B. are very cruel and they will kill you with the spears

C. are friendly to the tourists visiting them for the first time

D. move so fast and often that can’t be caught up with easily

Which of the following word can describe the life of Pygmy?

A. Quiet. B. Active. C. Hard. D. Busy.

Which of the following is TRUE of the Pygmy?

A. Their houses can’t be easily found in the hurt rain forest.

B. Their houses, which are three feet high, are made of wood.

C. Weapons and cooking pots are their most valuable possessions.

D. They are living in harmony with dangerous animals around.

Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made．Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects．Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages．I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic．

Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary．I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys．Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door．But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the insects．

I am a naturalist, not a scientist．I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm led me into varied investigations．I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other people’s observations and discoveries．Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind．

Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together．This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research．

But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack．A scientist requires not only self-discipline, but hard training, determination and a goal．A scientist, up to a certain point, can be made．A naturalist is born．If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds．

The first paragraph tells us the author _____．

A．was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood

B．lost his hearing when he was a child

C．didn’t like his brothers and sisters

D．was born to a naturalist’s family

The author can’t remember his relatives clearly because _____．

A．he didn’t live very long with them

B．the family was extremely large

C．he was too young when he lived with them

D．he was fully occupied with observing nature

The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he _____．

A．has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic

B．lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist

C．just reads about other people’s observations and discoveries

D．comes up with solutions in a most natural way

I first went to Harrow in the summer term. The school had the biggest swimming pool I had ever seen. It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a habit of this with boys of my own size or less.

One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was, so I thought him a fair game. Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strength making its way by face strokes (猛力地劃)to the shore. I fled（逃跑）, but in vain. He overtook me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of the pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys.” Do you know what you have done?” they said, “It’s Amery; he is in Grade Six. He is champion at gym; he has got his football honor.”

I was frightened and felt ashamed. “How could I tell his position when he was wrapped in a bath towel and so small.” He didn’t seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word, “My father, who is a great man, is also small.” Hearing that, he laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, signified the incident was closed.

The writer thought Amery” a fair game” because the boy .

A. looked like an animal B. was fond of games

C. was of similar size D. was good at sports

The writer felt” ashamed” because .

A. he was laughed at by other boys B. Amery turned out to be in the same grade

C. he pushed Amery hard and hurt him D. he played a joke on an outstanding athlete

By saying “My father, who is a great man, is also small”, the writer .

A. tried to please Amery B. challenged Amery

C. threatened Amery D. admired his father

Which of the following is TRUE?

A. The writer could run faster than Amery.

B. The writer liked playing on boys of all sizes.
