Researchers then work out the size and the weight of the bear, take blood to test for diseases, remove a tooth and take it to the lab to find out its age. From these studies, researchers want to find out how many bears live in New Jersey, how long they live, and how many babies they produce.

But in Minnesota, USA, researchers study bears that are completely awake. The bears know the researchers’ voices and they are not afraid of die research team. With the help of a few grapes to keep the bears busy,

21

。

All living things on the earth need other living things to live. Nothing lives alone. Most animals must live in a group, and even a plant grows close together with others of the same kind. Sometimes one living thing kills another, one eats and the other is eaten. Each kind of life eats another kind of life in order to live, and together they form a food chain. Some food chains are simple, while others are not. But all food chains begin with the sun, and all food chains become broken up if one of the links disappears.

All life needs sunlight to survive. But only plants can use sunlight directly. Plants are “factories”. They make food from sunlight, water and things in the soil and air.

Plants feed all other living things. Animals can only use the sun’s energy after it has been changed into food by plants. Some animals feed directly on plants, others eat smaller animals. Meat-eating animals are only eating plants indirectly.

What about human beings? We are members of many food chains. We eat wheat, rice, vegetables, fruits and so on. We also eat meat and drink milk. But men often break up the food chain. They kill wild animals and make rivers, lakes and seas dirty. When these rivers, lakes and seas are polluted, the fish in them can not be eaten. If men eat the fish, they will get strange diseases.

Each form of life is linked to all others. Breaking the links puts all life in danger.

根据上面短文的内容回答问题。 21.Can living thing on the earth live alone?

A new product – the Apple Watch – into the market

Last year, the Apple Watch was firstly introduced by Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. The price of the watch is from $349 to $1,099, depending on its size and whether it is a sports or regular one.

Apple engineers and designers have put in a lot of thought and hard work into creating this “small screen” on your wrist(手腕). The “sensor(传感器) ” on the screen not only finds your finger, but knows the difference between

when you are tapping, and when you are pressing harder.

The watch also has “haptic feedback(触觉反馈)”. You can send personal messages to your friend, such as drawing a star or a special sign with your fingers, or tapping the watch, say 3 times, and your friend will receive those taps on their wrist.

Besides telling the time, the watch will use ‘bluetooth’ to connect with your iPhone and show calls or text messages that come in.

According to Tim Cook, the watch may open up a whole new area of applications that we had never thought of. Some car factories like BMW have developed an app（应用程序）that allows its car owners to open their cars with the watch. A ‘Hotels’ app may allow you to open the door to your hotel room without worrying about losing the smart-card. And finally, even at the airport- passengers may be able to simply wave their wrist to check into their flight.

The biggest use of the watch, however, is as your personal fitness coach. The watch can measure your pulse (heartbeat) using a sensor at the bottom of the watch. It also has the same sensor as your iPhone, so it knows when you are moving, and also how much you are walking or running. It will remind you if you have been sitting for too long without taking exercise.

Many stores are planning to stop selling the Nike, Jawbone and FitBit devices(设备) to welcome the Apple Watch. Will Apple Watch really replace these devices and make fitness much more fun?

In the daily life, we often see some good manners around us. However, we sometimes see some bad behavior around us. For example, I often hear people speak and laugh loudly in public.

It is too noisy. Some people cut in line while others are waiting.It makes me unhappy. And in our school dining hall, I often see students waste food. At times,

people seem unfriendly and offer no help when others are in trouble.

For me, my parents are strict with me. They often tell me to behave well. So I never drop litter about. And I never draw on the desk or on the wall. I am polite to old people.

I think if everyone can think more of others, we’ll have a better living environment.
