Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helpera little bird called a honey guide.The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax in the beehives(蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees' nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the_follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.16Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest?AIt's small in size. BIt's hidden in trees.CIt's covered with wax. DIt's hard to recognize.17What do the words “the follower” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AA bee. BA bird.CA honey seeker.

Adds Heisler, “Instead of doing some skilful，over­produced photographs，I wanted something more authentic to the experience of being a father.” This isn't the first time that Heisler，39，has conveyed complex ideas for the cover of TIME.His photographs have decorated the front of the magazine some 20 times，ranging from Olympic athlete Jackie Joyner­Kersee and director Davis Lynch to former President George Bush and Ted Turner for “Man of the Year” issues in 1991 and 1992，respectively.But this week's TIME cover has special meaning，he says，because he and his wife had their first child，Lucy，16 months ago.The pictures appearing inside were all done by photographer Jeffrey Lowe.Although Lowe has not experienced fatherhood yet，he observed many warm moments of parenting by spending a lot of private time with each dad and child.Of all the pictures，Lowe was most deeply touched by the father­to­be embracing his pregnant wife.While most of the credit for the pictures rightly goes to those behind the camera，cover coordinator(協(xié)調者) Linda Freeman and assistant picture editor Mary Worrell Bousquette，who work behind the scenes，also deserve praise.Freeman，for instance，had the challenging task of making arrangements for the group portrait of child movie stars that appears on page 62. She says, “My greatest reward is working with these talented artists.”Bousquette edited the pictures that appear inside.“I wanted our story to show the many faces of fatherhood，”she says.At least in this issue，those fathers are seen as well as heard.20In this week's TIME the photographers wanted _Ato show Oscar Wilde's view had gone out of dateBto show honor to the famous playwright Oscar WildeCto support Oscar Wilde's viewDto say sorry to Oscar Wilde21In Oscar Wilde's view，_Afathers should stay actively involved in their children's livesBthere should be distance between fathers and children in family lifeCwhat fathers enjoy most is family lifeDfathers aren't sure about what they should do at home22Jeffrey Lowe managed to show fathers' feelings accurately in his photos by _Atrying to experience fatherhood himselfBspending most of his time with his pregnant wifeCstudying the relationship between each member in a familyDmixing with many fathers and their children23Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?AHeisler has conveyed complex ideas for the cover of TIME several times.BMary Worrell Bousquette is a cover coordinator.CLowe was most deeply touched by his pregnant wife.DThe author praises the work by the photographers and the editors.短文填詞With the development of economy, people have to face 24._ (各種各樣) pressures.

Their opinions mainly fall into two groups. Most of us agree that music should be played. As we know, music can produce a lively and happy atmosphere. Besides, music brings us relaxation after hard study, which reduces the tiredness. Listening to music also makes us feel happy and nice. On the other hand, some students don't think so. In their opinion, they can't get the expected result by playing music, as the break between classes is too short. What is needed during the break is peace instead of noise produced by the music. In addition, in class some students are still lost in the music they have heard during the break. 閱讀理解ALIPITORABOUT LIPITORLipitor is a prescription medicine.Along with diet and exercise，it lowers
