Vanuatu is an island nation in the South West Pacific. It is one of the smallest countries in the world. But for those who are interested in adventure and sports, there is a lot to do. Vanuatu's islands offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano(火山) surfing and land diving.
Volcano Surfing On Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 361 metres into the sky. Yasur is an active volcano, and it erupts(爆发) almost every day, sometimes several times a day. For centuries, people have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano. In some ways, volcano surfing is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways it's very different. Volcano surfers try to escape the erupting volcano—without getting hit by flying rocks! It's fast, fun and dangerous—the perfect extreme(极限)sport.
Land Diving Most people are familiar with bungee(蹦极) jumping, but do you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The activity, first called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony. A man ties tree vines(树藤) on his legs. He then jumps headfirst from a high tower to touch the earth with the top of his head—without breaking the vine. Every spring, island natives(men only) still take part in this amazing activity.
1. From the passage we know that Mount Yasur ____________.
A. is no longer active B. is on Pentecost Island
C. erupts once a year D. is about 361 metres high
2. According to the passage, which is TRUE about land diving?
A. It starts from bungee jumping.
B. It is a traditional activity in Vanuatu.
C. The man should jump with a broken vine.
D. All the island natives can join in the activity.

World Blood Donor Day(世界献血者日) is a very important holiday. It is a holiday to make people know about donating blood, encourage people to donate blood, as well as thanking current and past donors(捐赠者). It is held every year on June 14th.
The first World Blood Donor Day began in 2004. June 14th was chosen because it was Karl Landsteiner’s birthday. Landseiner created the ABO blood group system(血型系统), for which he won the Nobel Prire.
World Blood Donor Day is mainly a holiday of celebration. It encourage people to donate their blood worldwide. Blood is short in nearly all countries, especially in developing countries where clean equipment may be not enough.
According to WHO, over 90 million people donate blood every year but there is still a global shortage(短缺). If everyone donated blood, there might not be such a shortage. While World Blood Donor Day provides a chance to call to action, blood donors are also celebrated every June 14th. Some cities host events so that patients have the chance to thank donors for saving their lives. During these events, people may also be able to donate blood through mobile centers.
With each World Blood Donor Day held every year, more and more people across the globe are getting education on the importance of donating blood. This is not only important in achieving
the goal set by WHO, it is also good for humans. Today, in just 62 countries, national blood supplies(供给) are based on close to 100% voluntary unpaid blood donations(无偿献血), with 40 countries still dependent on family donors and even paid donors.
3. According to WHO, ____________ million people donate blood every year.
A. more than 90 B. less than 90 C. over 40 D. about 62
4. Which is NOT the right fact about World Blood Donor Day?
A. World Blood Donor Day started in 2004 and it is held every year.
B. Karl Landsteiner's birthday was chosen as World Blood Donor Day.
C. Thanks to World Blood Donor Day, there isn't a global blood shortage now.
D. It helps people know more about the importance of donating blood.

Many people believe that goldfish only have a three-second memory, but Roy Stokes, a 15-year-old schoolboy from Australian Science and Mathematics School has just finished an experiment to tell us that it is not true. He shows everybody that the goldfish are smarter than we think.
“I don't believe that they had a three-second memory because animals need their memory, so they can know where the food is, ” he said.
He did the experiment in a small tank(鱼缸) of goldfish. “I decided te get a red logo (标识) and just feed them next to the logo. Every day I'd put it in and scattered food around it. ” He said.
“At first they were a bit afraid of it, but by the end of the three weeks, they were actually almost coming before I put the food in.”
After leaving the fish alone for a week, Roy put the red logo in the tank again.
“They remembered perfectly well, ” he said. “They actually had a time faster than the three feeds before I left.”
The goldfish showed that they could not only store information, but also had the ability to get it back as a later date.
Colum Brown, a research fellow at Macquarie University in Sydney, has studied fish behavior(行为) for more than ten years. He says his studies show that fish are intelligent(智慧的) creatures that know how to avoid enemies and catch food like any other animal. As an experienced expert, Colum thinks that Roy's experiment is really good.
5. The right order of Rory's experiment should be .
① put the logo back into the tank
② feed the fish next to the logo
③ leave the goldfish alone for a week
④ take out the logo
⑤ put a red logo into the tank
⑥ find a tank of goldfish
A.⑥⑤②④③① B.⑥④⑤③①② C.⑥①⑤③②④ D.⑥⑤③②④①
6. Roy's experiment shows that .
