Monkeys That Lend a Hand

Have you ever dropped something while both your hands were full and wished you had another hand to pick it up? Some people cannot use their arms or hands to do simple jobs because they have been hurt or are sick. Usually they depend on other people to help them. This problem made two women think about how they could help people who cannot do everyday things for themselves.

In 1979 Dr. M. J. Willard and Judi Zazula began looking at some small, friendly monkeys called capuchin monkeys. These monkeys have hands like peo ple’s hands, and they like to be around people. Could the monkeys be trained to do things that people could not do for themselves? The women wanted to find out if their idea would work. So they spent a long time training some

capuchin monkeys, and they found that these animals made great helpers.

Today the first step in training a young capuchin monkey is to have it stay home with people and watch how they live. The monkeys learn how to behave around people. Then the monkeys go to a special school in Boston. There they learn how to do many easy chores. They are taught how to carry food and pick up dropped objects. They learn how to open doors and turn light switches on and off. They even learn how to use CD players and VCRs.

After a monkey finishes its training, it goes to live with a person who needs help. If the person wants a light turned on, the monkey does it. If the person needs a glass of water, the monkey brings it. If the person wants to watch TV, the monkey turns it on. The monkey becomes a very important part of that person’s life. In fact, the monkey often becomes the person’s good friend.

49. Capuchin monkeys are people’s great helpers because ______________.

A. they learn more quickly than other monkeys

B. they have hands like people’s hands

C. they like to watch how people live

D. they are small, cute and naughty

50. The underlined word “behave” means to______________.

A. learn skills

B. act well

C. avoid hurts

D. provide help

51. What is the passage mainly about?

A. How capuchin monkeys can help people do things.

B. Why capuchin monkeys’ hands are like people’s hands.

C. Where scientists train capuchin monkeys to help people.

D. When people found capuchin monkeys were helpful.

Hershey chocolate has become famous around the world. But did you know that the Hershey chocolate factory is only about one hundred years old? And did you know that the founder（创办人）of Hershey Chocolate, Milton Hershey, had many failures （失败）in business before he started his famous company?

Milton Hershey grew up in a farm country of Pennsylvania. Before he started making chocolate, Milton Hershey was a printer. He worked for a small newspaper and then he decided to change a job.

Later he got a job at a candy factory. After working a few years at the factory,

he decided to open his own little candy business, His first business had to close down because it was not making money. After that, he traveled to Denver, Colorado, to learn how to make caramels（焦糖）.

He took his new skills back to New York and worked selling candies on the street. But this second business also failed.

Finally, Milton Hershey moved back to the farm country where he grew up. He then experimented（试验）with all sorts of different candies and chocolates. The area where he lived had lots of dairy farms, so he could get plenty of fresh milk easily.

And he could get other supplies（原料）, such as sugar, from nearby Philadelphia. By 1893 he was selling a million dollars worth of caramel candy every year. Since his chocolate-flavored（巧克力风味）caramel was the best-selling, he decided to make chocolate himself.

By experimenting, Milton Hershey learned how to make delicious chocolate by using fresh, sweet milk. His milk chocolates were so popular that he sold his caramel factory and made chocolate only. In 1903, Milton Hershey built a huge chocolate factory and the town of Hershey.

Today, the town of Hershey is still the home of the factory that Milton Hershey built. And if you ever visit, you can smell the delicious chocolate smells just by driving through the town.

A. To work as a printer.

C. Milton found his own way to make delicious chocolate.

D. Milton sold his caramel factory because it was not making money.

54. What is the important lesson of this story?

When people say “culture”, we think of art and history. But one very famous symbol in American culture is a cartoon. We all know and love the black mouse with two large round ears ―Mickey Mouse. Over 80 years ago, he first appeared in the cartoon Steamboat Willie. When this cartoon came out in New York on November 18, 1928, it was the first cartoon with sound and music. The man behind Mickey was Walt Disney. He became very rich and successful. In the 1930s, he made 87 cartoons with Mickey.

Some people might ask how this cartoon animal became so popular. One of the main reasons is that Mickey was like a common man, but he always tried to face any danger. In his early films, Mickey was unlucky and had many problems such as losing his house or girlfriend, Minnie. However, he was always ready to try his best. People went to

the cinema to see the “little man” win. Most of them wanted to be like Mickey.

On November 18, 1979, Mickey became the first cartoon character to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame（星光大道）. Today’s cartoons are usually not so simple as little Mickey Mouse, but everyone still knows and loves him. Who has a pair of ears more famous than Mickey’s?

59. Is Mickey Mouse a famous symbol in Amerian culture?

60. Who created Mickey Mouse?

61. Why is Mickey Mouse so popular?

62. When did Mickey get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?
