【题目】阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项。
There were three big fish in the lake. One of them, Demo, was wise; another one, Jimmy, was half-wise; Martin, the third one, was stupid.
Some fishermen came to the bank of the lake with their nets. The three fish saw them.
Demo decided at once to leave, to make the long and difficult trip to the ocean. He thought, "I won't discuss with these two about this. They love this place so much that they call it home and will stay on. How silly they are! They still haven't realized we are in great danger now. Their ignorance will cost them their lives."
Seeing the wise fish had left, Jimmy thought, "My guide has gone and now I've lost my chance to escape." He felt sorry for it and then thought, "What can I do to save myself from these men and their nets? Perhaps I should pretend（假装）to be already dead, giving myself totally to the water." So he did that. He went up and down with the water, helpless, within arm's reach of the fishermen.
"Look at this! The best and biggest fish is dead." One of the men lifted him by the tail, and threw him up on the ground. He rolled（滚动）over and over and moved secretly toward the water, and then, back in.
The third fish was aimlessly jumping about, trying to escape with his speed and cleverness. The net, of course, finally closed around him, and as he lay in the hot frying-pan bed, he thought, "If I get out of this, I'll never live again in the limits of the lake. Next time, the ocean! I'll make it my home."
（1）Demo thought that he could escape from the fishermen by _______.
A.staying in the lake
B.pretending to be dead
C.jumping here and there
D.traveling to the ocean
（2）The underlined sentence “Their ignorance will cost them their lives.” in the passage means _______.
A.They will get away from the danger because of their carefulness.
B.Some bad things will happen to their daily lives.
C.They will die if they aren't intelligent and smart enough.
D.Because of their ignorance, they will have happy lives.
（3）Who was caught by the fishermen at last?
A.Demo
B.Jimmy
C.Martin
D.Mario
（4）We can read this passage in ______
A.a letter
B.a story book
C.a science book
D.a poster
（5）What can we learn from the passage?
A.It is important to make proper changes in time.
B.Good chances are always given to the honest.
C.The stupid can also succeed with great efforts.
D.Where there is a will, there is a way.

Do you often think of life in the future？Will we study at home？Will we have robots？Will we fly to the moon easily？Everyone may have his or her views about that. Life in the future will be very different from life today. Between then and now many changes will take place,but what will the changes be?

There will be changes in our food. Maybe no one will eat meat. Instead,people will eat more fruit and vegetables. People will stay away from junk food. Maybe people will be healthier.

Computers will be small and useful. Maybe we will even put the computer into our pockets(口袋)．There will be at least two computers in every home. And computer studies will be one of the most important subjects at school.

Work in the future will be different,too. Dangerous and hard work can be done by robots. People will work fewer hours than they do now. And they will have more free time for sports,watching TV and traveling.
