For each of them there are 4 choicesmarked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWERSHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneHow much do you know about nutrition? If your knowledge is similar to that of food shoppers who answered three surveys for the U. S. Food and Drug Administration, then you probably share some wide-spread misinformation about nutrition. Check your answers to the following statements. Is it true or false?Statement 1: Fresh vegetables cooked at home are always more nutritious than canned or frozen vegetables.False. The nutritional difference depends more on how vegetables are handled or prepared than in whether they are bought fresh or packaged. Overcooking, for example, destroys many nutrients. Vegetables cooked in too much water can lose a significant amount of vitamins.Statement 2: When dieting, avoid starchy(淀粉类) foods, such as bread or potatoes. False. If you cut out starchy foods, such as peas, potatoes, bread, and rice, you cut out very good sources of several B vitamins, Vitamin C, and other nutrients. Moreover, ounce for ounce, bread and potatoes have fewer calories than sirloin steak and roast beef.Statement 3: Taking extra vitamins beyond the recommended daily allowances won’t give you more energy.True. It’s widely believed that extra vitamins provide more energy. But taking more than the body needs doesn't make it function better, just as overfilling your gas tank doesn’t make your car run faster.If you answered these questions correctly, you can for the time being consider yourself well informed about food and nutrition by today’s standards. But remember that nutrition is a complex and growing science and that today’s beliefs may be changed as new information becomes available.16. The first paragraph implies that many people __________.A. are well informed about nutritionB. don’t care about nutritionC. have much knowledge of nutritionD. have incorrect ideas about nutrition17. According to paragraph 2, which is NOT true about nutrition?A. Overcooking destroys many nutrients.B. It makes no difference how you prepare vegetables.C. Both fresh and packaged vegetables are nutritious.D. Vitamins in vegetable could be lost during cooking.18. Which is a correct attitude towards starchy food?A. Starchy foods are unnecessary in a balanced diet.B. Bread and steak have the same amount of calories per ounce.C. Valuable nutrients could be found in starchy foods.D. Starchy foods include only peas, potatoes, bread and rice.19. The description of “overfilling your gas tank” shows why __________.A. one should take as much vitamins as possibleB. more than enough vitamins is unnecessaryC. vitamins cost as much as gasD. doctors recommend allowance of vitamins20. A good title for this article would be__________.A. Tips of Losing Weight EffectivelyB. Test Your Nutrition IQC. Nutrition: A Complex Branch of ScienceD. Misleading Nutrition ConceptsPassage TwoMost women in Ghana--the educated and illiterate, the urban and rural, the young and old--work to earn an income in addition to maintaining their roles as housewives and mothers. Their reputation for economic independence, self-reliance, and hard work is well known and well deserved.Most of Ghana’s working women are farmers and traders. Only one woman in five, or even fewer, can be classified as simply housewives. Even these women often earn money by sewing or by baking and cooking things to sell. They also maintain vegetable gardens and chicken farms. Indeed, the woman who depends entirely upon her husband for support is looked upon with disfavor.Traditionally the tasks of motherhood have been shared. Mothers and sisters, grandmothers and nieces all helped to raise the children and to carry out daily tasks. As the family grew, older brothers and sisters also helped to care for the younger ones and helped in the home. Now with more children going to school, with more people moving away from their traditional homes, not only must the mother continue her income-producing activities, but she must take on all the heavy, time-consuming housework.Ghana today is looking for new ways to meet the needs of women and their families, such as providing more day care centers, so women can continue to play their multiple roles in the home and in the economy.21. What is the role of most women in Ghana?A. Handling various housework at home.B. Taking care of children indoors.C. Farming and trading out of house.D. Working as well as maintaining families.22. “self-relianc e” could be explained as“__________”.A. making great wealthB. depending on oneselfC. caring for one’s ownD. being a reliable person23. What kind of women do people in Ghana prefer?A. Beautiful and charming.B. Skillful at sewing or baking.C. Depending totally on husbands.D. Working hard to earn incomes.24. Paragraph 3 describes__________.A. how traditional extended families operateB. why women in Ghana have more burdens nowC. how changes in life help the working womenD. the new life s tyle of Ghana’s people25. The author of this article probably agrees that women inGhana should__________.A. stay at home and focus on family lifeB. become as active as men in businessC. try to maintain their original rolesD. make a choice and stick to one rolePassage ThreeThe blues was born on the Mississippi River Delta in the early 1900s. After the Civil War, the slaves were free but life was still not easy. They had to find new work. In the South, work camps were formed. Black people from these camps worked on farms and on building up the Mississippi River banks. During the week the people worked long and hard. They often lived alone, without their families, far from home. On the weekends, the workers got together at picnics or drinking places. Travelling black musicians with guitars entertained them. The musicians sang songs about the difficult life of the workers. These songs were called the blues.If you have the blues it means you feel very sad. You can have the blues because you have no money, no job, no lover, or no home. But blue songs were not always sad. Some of them were happy and many of them were funny.Sometimes the blues singers had song contests. Each singer sang new words or a new style of the blues song. They made up the music as they played. In this way they created new music. This is called improvisation. Later, improvisation became a very important part of jazz music.Blues began in the country in the South. As blacks moved into the big cities to work, the blues went with them. There, they sang about life in the cities. W.C. Handy, a black band leader from Memphis made the blues popular all over America. In 1914 he wrote the most famous blues song of all, “The St. Louis Blues”.26. After the Civil War, the Black people _________.A. were mostly slavesB. still led a hard lifeC. enjoyed their new life with familiesD. worked on their own farms27. At the very beginning, the blues were _________.A. not performed on formal occasionsB. traditional songs of the Black peopleC. about the life of travelling musiciansD. very popular throughout the nation28. What kind of emotion does the blues express?A. SadnessB. HappinessC. JokingD. All of the above29. How did “improvisation” come into being?A. The blues singers gathered to have contests.B. New words were added into old songs.C. New styles were played with guitars.D. The blues singers created music while playing.30. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The blues were born in the country in the South.B. The blues soon disappeared in big cities.C. W. C. Handy is the first blues singer in US.D. The most well-known blues song is “The St. Louis Blues”.Passage FourNo matter who you are or where you come from, one thing is certain：you are acquainted with the mosquito(蚊子)--although you probably wish you weren’t. Mosquitoes are everywhere. They can be found all over the world, and they come in more than 2,500 species. Somewhere, at some time, you have surely met at least one.No one loves the mosquito. But unfortunately the mosquito may decide that she loves you. Yes, She. Only the female mosquito bites. It’s not because she’s unfriendly: she needs blood to reproduce. Female mosquito is quite selective, and she chooses her victims carefully. First, she uses sensors to find her victim. With these sensors, she tests your body moisture, body warmth, and chemical substances in your sweat. If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if you don’t appeal to her, she’ll reject you for someone more appetizing. T he next time a mosquito bites you, just remember that you were chosen. You’re special.If the mosquito likes you, she settles onto your flesh very gently, and she breaks your skin with her proboscis tip. It’s a kind of mouth and it sticks out just below t he mosquito’s eyes. She stabs the proboscis tip into your skin at once, and if she hits a blood vessel, she’ll get a full dinner in about a minute. After that, the mosquito is tired. Heavy with your blood, she picks a spot---on a leave or a stone---to lay her eggs. Just one drop of blood will produce hundreds of eggs. 31. By the sentence “you are acquainted with the mosquito--although you probablywish you weren’t”, the author means that people _________.A. don’t like mosquito but it is always thereB. know mosquito and wish them wellC. wish all the mosquito disappearedD. want to be friendly to mosquito but fail at last32. Why is it only female mosquito that bites?A. She is more unfriendly than male.B. She is greater in number.C. Blood is her favorite food.D. Blood enables her to lay eggs.33.

According to the last paragraph, the function of proboscis tip is to_______.A. find where to biteB. to stick into the flesh and suck bloodC. to remove the skin and collect bloodD. decide whom to reject35. The main idea of the passage could be _______.A. why and how mosquito bites peopleB. why people dislike mosquitoC. what kind of mosquito bites peopleD. how to identify female mosquitoPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A.B ,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the centre of the letter that indicates your choice.Passage OneThere is something hard to resist about cherries.The small red fruit is a popular seasonal food around the world. Cherries are thought to be native to western Asia. It is a member of the same family of plants as the rose. It is closely related to the plum. Like cherry trees, plum trees also flower in early spring.There are two major kinds of cherries harvested in the world: sweet and sour. Sour cherries are not eaten fresh because they contain little sugar. Instead, they are processed to make prepared foods like jellies and pies and to make alcoholic drinks. The United States is a major producer of sour cherries. Among the states, Michigan is the top producer. Russia, Poland and Turkey are other important cherry-producing nations. Sweet cherries contain much more sugar than their sour relatives and are usually eaten fresh. Washington State is the biggest American producer, followed by California and Oregon. The United States, Iran and Turkey are major producers of sweet cherries. Fresh cherries do not store well. They must reach market as soon as possible. So they cost more than many other kinds of fresh fruit.Farmers produce different kinds of cherries through the process of grafting(嫁接).They take cuttings from existing trees and join them to related trees. The cuttings grow into the root stock, so the two kinds of trees grow as one.Cherry trees are also valued for their springtime blossoms. Cherry blossoms are popular in many parts of Asia and Europe, especially in Japan. But Washington, D. C., has some of the most famous cherry trees in the world. Japan gave the United States 3,500 cherry trees in 1912 as a gift of friendship. Years later Japan gave another gift of 3,800 trees. In the early nineteen eighties, the United States provided Japan with cuttings to help replace Japanese trees lost in a flood.11.What plant family does the cherry belong to? ( )A.Plum.B.Apple.C.Rose.D.Pear.12.According to the passage, sour cherries . ( )A.cannot be used as they are too sourB.are good raw material for food industryC.are more healthy as they contain little sugarD.can easily be made into alcohol13.The most important sweet cherry producer in the US is . ( )A.Michigan StateB.Washington StateC.California StateD.Oregon State14.Fresh cherries are usually expensive in the market, because . ( )A.they are difficult to growB.they should be transported by airC.they are easy to decayD.they are hard to transport15.Some of the most famous cherry trees in Washington, D. C. . ( )A.grew from the cuttings given by JapanB.are survivals of a flood in JapanC.blossom longer than the ones in other countryD.were gifts from Japan long time agoPassage TwoWhat are the differences between public and private in American higher education? A big difference involves money. Public colleges and universities charge for an education just like private schools. But state schools cost less because they get money from the states that started them to educate local citizens. As a result, out-of-state and international students usually pay more than state residents, at least the first year.The state with the most residents, almost forty million, is California. Its systems of two- year and four-year colleges and universities are among the largest in the world. But the example we are going to focus on today is to the north of California, in a much smaller state on the West Coast: Oregon.The University of Oregon, located in Eugene, is one of the campuses in the Oregon University System. The cost for undergraduates this year is $6,000 for state residents. Housing is an additional $8,000. Non-residents pay the same for housing—but almost $20,000 for tuition and fees.Let’s see how these numbers compare to a private college in Oregon.Lewis and Clark College in Portland has 4, 000 students, compared to 20,000 at the University of Oregon. Housing costs $800 more than at the state school. But the big difference is tuition. The published price at Lewis and Clark is almost $34,000.Yet Lewis and Clark is one of the few American colleges to offer financial aid for international students. Each year it awards financial aid to twenty students from other countries. And it says the average award last year was 19,000 dollars. That would make Lewis and Clark cheaper for international students than the University of Oregon.But, of course, prices alone do not say anything about the quality of a school or the value of an education.16.One of the differences between public and private universities is . ( )A.private universities are usually smaller than the public onesB.attending private universities is less expensiveC.public universities require foreign student to pay more tuitionsD.public universities provide more financial aids to foreign students17.According to the passage, the Oregon University System . ( )A.is located in EugeneB.is part of the University of OregonC.charges more tuition this yearD.has campuses in different places18.This year a foreign undergraduate student in the University of Oregon should pay. ( )A.an additional $8,000 for the tuitionB.as much as the state residentsC.less than a state resident if they can get financial aidD.$14,000 more than state residents19.The costs of tuition and housing in Lewis and Clark College are . ( )A.both more expensive than in the University of OregonB.cheaper for foreign student than in the University of OregonC.the same as that in the University of OregonD.cheaper than those of the University of Oregon for the state residents20.We can conclude from the passage that the cost and the quality of a university are .( )A.the more the betterB.the more the worseC.not necessarily relatedD.closely relatedPassage ThreeOctober is Domestic Violence Awareness Month in the United States. The observance seeks to educate the public about this issue which affects millions of people each year.Five years ago, the United Nations published results of a study about domestic violence. It found that as many as 275 million children worldwide witness violence in the home. These boys and girls represent a secret society of sufferers. Officials say they are the forgotten victims of domestic violence.Research shows such children face a greater risk of problems in school, emotional disorders, and drug abuse, among other things. Many children who witness violence at home grow up to become abusers or victims themselves. That is why the UN Children's Fund calls domesticviolence“ one of the most important human rights challenges of our times."The congressional hearing was held last week to educate American policy makers about the problem.Domestic violence is defined as any form of behavior used to gain power or control over another person. It can include verbal, emotional, physical or sexual abuse.The National Institute of Justice and The Centers for Disease Control say one in four American women will suffer some form of domestic violence in her lifetime. One and a half million women are physically attacked or raped each year. In the United States, three women die each day because of violence in the home.The problem is believed to be even more widespread than these numbers suggest. Many cases of domestic violence are never reported. Victims often feel responsible for the abuse they suffer. They also experience a strong sense of shame or dishonor.This is even truer among men, who are less likely to report abuse. Studies show that one in thirteen men in the United States is a victim of domestic violence.Domestic Violence Awareness Month seeks to bring these issues out into the open, and to get more people involved in finding a solution. Officials say knowing the facts about domestic violence may help save lives and end the cycle of violence.21.According to the United Nation's study published 5 years ago, . ( )A.more children than woman became victims of domestic violenceB.children victims of domestic violence were previously neglectedC.275 million children in the US suffer from domestic violence each yearD.children victims have organized a secret society of sufferers22.Domestic violence against children should be paid more attention, because( )A.children are too young to bear the violenceB.more violence's cases are against children than adultsC.children's lives are impacted more seriouslyD.children can not protect themselves well23.The word" verbal” in the 5th paragraph probably means. ( )A.something is expressed in speechB.something related to violent actionsC.something that can cause strong feelingsD.something connecting with a person's body24.According to the report of The National Institute of Justice and The Centers for DiseaseControl, . ( )A.1.5 million American women experienced domestic violence in their lifetimeB.3 American women are killed in domestic violence each dayC.3/4 American women victims are physically attacked or raped each yearD.more than half of the cases of domestic violence are never reported25.The cases of domestic violence against men are . ( )A.extremely fewB.insignificantC.not included in the reportD.less likely to be reportedPassage FourEarlier this month, researcher Kevin Beaver of Florida State University reported that he and his co-authors had identified genetic markers associated with academic achievement. In their study, published in the journal Developmental Psychology, the scientists found that young people who possessed particular forms of three genes were more likely to finish high school and go on to college than those who carried other forms of the genes. The newly found genes are involved in regulating the actions in the brain, and have been linked in other studies to levels of motivation, attention and intelligence.It is true that in recent years, scientists have produced a growing number of studies linking the capacity to learn to specific genes. A team at King's College London, for example, has published several articles relating ability in mathematics to different varieties in DNA. Children who carried 10 or more of the "risk” genes identified b y the researchers were nearly twice as likely to perform poorly in math, according to a 2010 study generated by the group. In another experiment, scientists reported that some individuals possess another two forms of genes involved in brain development that may make it easier for them to learn difficult languages like Chinese.But scientists have long warned against attributing complex human behaviors to the action of a few genes — and learning is among the most complex things we do. The authors of these studies acknowledge this. “Mathematical ability and disability are influenced by many forms of genes generating small effects across the entire system of ability,” writes Sophia Docherty, who heads the King's College team. Moreover, environment matters, even in the context of genes: Docherty's research finds that children with the "risk” forms of genes were especially likely to do poorly in math when they lived in chaotic homes and had negative, punitive(惩罚性的)parents. More generally research indicates that genetic factors account for about half of the elements in educational achievement.26.Scientists found that . ( )A.everyone is born the same in the ability of learningB.genes can not affect people's performance in learningC.there are some genes which make people learn betterD.genes are decisive factors for learning better27.Some children perform poorly in mathematics probably because . ( )A.they don't have good genes for learning mathematicsB.they have laid a weak foundation in learning mathematicsC.their parents neglected the child's early education in mathematicsD.their mathematics programs are too difficult for them28.Scientists also found that . ( )A.some individuals possess completely different forms of genesB.some people are born with talent in learning languageC.learning behaviors are complex to attribute the roles of genesD.mathematics is the most complex human brain action29.The word “chaotic” probably means . ( )A.lower educatedB.in complete disorder and confusionC.looking after children poorlyD.not in harmony30.We can conclude that . ( )A.environment matters are even more important in learningB.more practice can make up the difference of genesC.some people can never learn well no matter how hard they doD.some one is born brighter than othersPart III Vocabulary and Structure(20 minutes,20 points)Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this section.

Children must be dependent on their parents; and the weak must depend on the strong, and the sick on the well. And in a sense, all of us, even the most independent and self-reliant, are dependent on one another. At any rate, in civilized society, it is impossible for anyone to make all the things he needs. No man can produce all the food and clothes he wants. He can only produce one or two things, and must get all the others by exchange or purchase from others, who are doing the same thing. So in a community everyone is dependent on the service of others, while he himself contributes to the needs of others.________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ __________Part V Writing(30 minutes, 15 points)Directions : You are to write in no less than 120 words about the title “ TheAdvantages or Disadvantages of Having Hobbies”.

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a singleline through the center.Passage OneHow much do you know about nutrition? If your knowledge is similar to that of food shoppers who answered three surveys for the U. S. Food and Drug Administration, then you probably share some wide-spread misinformation about nutrition. Check your answers to the following statements. Is it true or false?Statement 1: Fresh vegetables cooked at home are always more nutritious than canned or frozen vegetables.False. The nutritional difference depends more on how vegetables are handled or prepared than in whether they are bought fresh or packaged. Overcooking, for example, destroys many nutrients. Vegetables cooked in too much water can lose a significant amount of vitamins.Statement 2: When dieting, avoid starchy(淀粉类) foods, such as bread or potatoes. False. If you cut out starchy foods, such as peas, potatoes, bread, and rice, you cut out very good sources of several B vitamins, Vitamin C, and other nutrients. Moreover, ounce for ounce, bread and potatoes have fewer calories than sirloin steak and roast beef.Statement 3: Taking extra vitamins beyond the recommended dail y allowances won’t give you more energy.True. It’s widely believed that extra vitamins provide more energy. But taking more than the body needs doesn't make it function better, just as overfilling your gas tank doesn’t make your car run faster.If you answered these questions correctly, you can for the time being consider yourself well informed about food and nutrition by today’s standards. But remember that nutrition is a complex and growing science and that today’s beliefs may be changed as new informat ion becomes available.16. The first paragraph implies that many people __________.A. are well informed about nutritionB. don’t care about nutritionC. have much knowledge of nutritionD. have incorrect ideas about nutrition17. According to paragraph 2, which is NOT true about nutrition?A. Overcooking destroys many nutrients.B. It makes no difference how you prepare vegetables.C. Both fresh and packaged vegetables are nutritious.D. Vitamins in vegetable could be lost during cooking.18. Which is a correct attitude towards starchy food?A. Starchy foods are unnecessary in a balanced diet.B. Bread and steak have the same amount of calories per ounce.C. Valuable nutrients could be found in starchy foods.D. Starchy foods include only peas, potatoes, bread and rice.19. The description of “overfilling your gas tank” shows why __________.A. one should take as much vitamins as possibleB. more than enough vitamins is unnecessaryC. vitamins cost as much as gasD. doctors recommend allowance of vitamins20. A good title for this article would be__________.A. Tips of Losing Weight EffectivelyB. Test Your Nutrition IQC. Nutrition: A Complex Branch of ScienceD. Misleading Nutrition ConceptsPassage TwoMost women in Ghana--the educated and illiterate, the urban and rural, the young andold--work to earn an income in addition to maintaining their roles as housewives and mothers. Their reputation for economic independence, self-reliance, and hard work is well known and well deserved.Most of Ghana’s working women are farmers and traders. Only one woman in five, or even fewer, can be classified as simply housewives. Even these women often earn money by sewing or by baking and cooking things to sell. They also maintain vegetable gardens and chicken farms. Indeed, the woman who depends entirely upon her husband for support is looked upon with disfavor.Traditionally the tasks of motherhood have been shared. Mothers and sisters, grandmothers and nieces all helped to raise the children and to carry out daily tasks. As the family grew, older brothers and sisters also helped to care for the younger ones and helped in the home. Now with more children going to school, with more people moving away from their traditional homes, not only must the mother continue her income-producing activities, but she must take on all the heavy, time-consuming housework.Ghana today is looking for new ways to meet the needs of women and their families, such as providing more day care centers, so women can continue to play their multiple roles in the home and in the economy.21. What is the role of most women in Ghana?A. Handling various housework at home.B. Taking care of children indoors.C. Farming and trading out of house.D. Working as well as maintaining families.22. “self-relianc e” could be explained as“__________”.A. making great wealthB. depending on oneselfC. caring for one’s ownD. being a reliable person23. What kind of women do people in Ghana prefer?A. Beautiful and charming.B. Skillful at sewing or baking.C. Depending totally on husbands.D. Working hard to earn incomes.24. Paragraph 3 describes__________.A. how traditional extended families operateB. why women in Ghana have more burdens nowC. how changes in life help the working womenD. the new life s tyle of Ghana’s people25. The author of this article probably agrees that women inGhana should__________.A. stay at home and focus on family lifeB. become as active as men in businessC. try to maintain their original rolesD. make a choice and stick to one rolePassage ThreeThe blues was born on the Mississippi River Delta in the early 1900s. After the Civil War, the slaves were free but life was still not easy. They had to find new work. In the South, work camps were formed. Black people from these camps worked on farms and on building up the Mississippi River banks. During the week the people worked long and hard. They often lived alone, without their families, far from home. On the weekends, the workers got together at picnics or drinking places. Travelling black musicians with guitars entertained them. The musicians sang songs about the difficult life of the workers. These songs were called the blues.If you have the blues it means you feel very sad. You can have the blues because you have no money, no job, no lover, or no home. But blue songs were not always sad. Some of them were happy and many of them were funny.Sometimes the blues singers had song contests. Each singer sang new words or a new style of the blues song. They made up the music as they played. In this way they created new music. This is called improvisation. Later, improvisation became a very important part of jazz music.Blues began in the country in the South. As blacks moved into the big cities to work, the blues went with them. There, they sang about life in the cities. W. C. Handy, a black band leader from Memphis made the blues popular all over America. In 1914 he wrote the most famous blues song of all, “The St. Louis Blues”.26. After the Civil War, the Black people _________.A. were mostly slavesB. still led a hard lifeC. enjoyed their new life with familiesD. worked on their own farms27. A t the very beginning, the blues were _________.A. not performed on formal occasionsB. traditional songs of the Black peopleC. about the life of travelling musiciansD. very popular throughout the nation28. W hat kind of emotion does the blues express?A. SadnessB. HappinessC. JokingD. All of the above29. How did “improvisation” come into being?A. The blues singers gathered to have contests.B. New words were added into old songs.C. New styles were played with guitars.D. The blues singers created music while playing.30. W hich of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The blues were born in the country in the South.B. The blues soon disappeared in big cities.C. W. C. Handy is the first blues singer in US.D. The most well-known blues song is “The St. Louis Blues”.Passage FourNo matter who you are or where you come from, one thing is certain：you are acquainted with the mosquito(蚊子)--although you probably wish you weren’t. Mosquitoes are everywhere. They can be found all over the world, and they come in more than 2,500 species. Somewhere, at some time, you have surely met at least one.No one loves the mosquito. But unfortunately the mosquito may decide that she loves you. Yes, She. Only the female mosquito bites. It’s not because she’s unfriendly: she needs blood to reproduce. Female mosquito is quite selective, and she chooses her victims carefully. First, she uses sensors to find her victim. With these sensors, she tests your body moisture, body warmth, and chemical substances in your sweat. If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if you don’t appeal to her, she’ll reject you for someone more appetizing. T he next time a mosquito bites you, just remember that you were chosen. You’re special.If the mosquito likes you, she settles onto your flesh very gently, and she breaks your skin with her proboscis tip.
