(1) (6) (3) (4) (2) (5) C. The Smallest Life Around Us Tiny plants and animals live all around us. We cannot see them because they are so small, but they are everywhere. They live in the soil, the air, and in rivers and oceans. They grow on mountains and in caves. Some live in the ice at the north and south poles。 some live where it is very hot. They are found throughout cities and in the country. They grow on other plants and animals. Some are even living on you, on your skin, hair, and inside your body, in your mouth, nose, and all through your intestines(腸 ). These tiny plants and animals are called microbes. The word microbe is made from two other words: micro, meaning small, and bios, meaning life. So, microbe means small life. Microbes have been on earth for a very long time. They may have been the first forms of life to be alive. Today there are more microbes in the world than all other living things. People did not know microbes had existed(存在 ) long. They were too small for them to see. But people did see many changes in their world— important changes. And they did not know what caused them. They saw food that they kept too long change color and begin to smell bad. They saw cuts and wounds grow red and painful and bee infected(感染 ). They saw old plants and leaves and trees crumble apart on the forest floor and disappear into the soil. Such changes were a natural part of the world, but people did not understand them. They did not know these changes were evidence of tiny plants and animals growing all around them. 51. Why couldn’t people see microbes? A. Because they are too small. B. Because they live inside our body. C. Because they live far from humans. D. Because they may have been the first forms of life to be alive. 52.

Choose the answer that pletes the web below. A. Microbes are very small B. Microbes are all around us C. People can’t see m icrobes D. Food begins to smell bad D The willful blindness in hockey toward concussions (頭部撞擊 ) has dropped. Hockey Canada has followed the lead of USA Hockey in preventing bodychecking (身體攔截 ) below age 13. A bad head injury of Sidney Crosby, the hockey’s greatest star, opened the eyes of hockey people everywhere. This country’s child ren have been facing similar danger at early ages, and Hockey Canada had to deal with a deep worry in the minds of Canadians to make the rule change. The liking for bodychecking from an early age is part of what makes Canadian hockey what it is. The change in rules should be taken as a chance to draw special attention to skill development in an environment free of danger. It may also control the loss of thousands of young players who don’t enjoy that environment. For years, many Canadian hockey parents and coaches have insisted that bodychecking at early ages is necessary to ensure that players can do it safely at older ages. True or not, there may be a safer way to teach hitting than to make younger players pay a price for it in head injuries. When USA Hockey changed its rules for the 20212021 season, it also created bodycheckingeducation programs that will be mandatory(強制的 ) for all coaches, including those teaching players in the prechecking ages. And it began to allow more “touch” without real bodychecking － from 9 to 12. It also made the rules for 13 and up stricter. The USA is trying to show that it’s possible to teach hockey protective skills without putting 11 and 12yearolds in greater danger. It’s worth the try. Hockey Canada has taken serious steps to do away with hits on the head. However, it’s hard to change a sports culture so connected with who we are as a country. Too often, bodychecking has been used to try to separate a player from his head rather than from the ball. Children were paying a price for this country’s love of the game. There are always changes in Canada’s game, and the change in the bodychecking age sends the clearest message yet to coaches and parents that player safety is paramount(至上的 ) in the game. Evidence that microbes exist Leaves disappear into soil Cuts and wounds get red and painful ? 54. We can tell that the problem of bodychecking in Canada _______. A. is controlled strictly B. is taken more seriously now C. is caused by players’ carelessness D. is connected with players’ interest 55. What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 2? A.
