We bet that on cold wintry days, many of you love to stay in your warm home and, every now and then，come out into the kitchen for a snack. Unfortunately, plenty of creepy-crawly critters (爬行生物) like to do the same thing!
Winter is the time when bugs (虫子) invade your house without an invitation. The season can be tough for such creatures. In winter the air is cold, the ground is hard and many trees have no leaves. So bugs do what they have to do to survive.
Monarch butterflies head south to warmer climates. Ants crowd in deep underground colonies and eat food they have been storing all year. Many insects go into a deep sleep called diapauses. There?re different kinds of diapauses, but all are similar to hibernation, a time when bigger animals become inactive in the cold. Insects go into an inactive period, too, but it often isn?t when the temperature drops.
They rely on more dependable signals in the environment. For example, many insects can tell how much sunlight there?s each day. They use that to tell themselves when to shut down. Bugs are cold-blooded, meaning that their inside temperature is the same as the outside. They can? t move much when it gets below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. So they search for any warm place.
They?re looking for protection. These guys have been doing this for 300 million years, so they don?t really know they?re coming into your house. The home is a recent event in terms of their evolutionary behavior. They enter through tiny cracks or come in unnoticed on your clothes or shoes. Remember that they may be invading your homes for warmth and food, but they don?t care about humans. 66. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To point out that humans like to stay at home in winter. B. To mean that humans and bugs have the same living habits. C. To put forward the idea that bugs are not welcome in winter. D. To mean that bugs will invade humans? houses for their winter. 67．According to the text, what is diapauses?
A. It is a deep sleep similar to hibernation. B. It is done to keep bugs active in winter. C. It is the same as the animals? hibernation. D. It often appears in warm areas all the year. 68．What often decides bugs? diapauses?
A. The amount of sunlight. B. The lower local temperature. C. Kinds of environmental signals. D. The insects? inside temperature. 69．According to the text, bugs invade humans? homes to________.
A. attack humans B. seek for protection C. look for enough food D. show their evolutionary results 70．What would be the best title for the text?
A. What does “diapauses” mean? B. Bugs? life on cold wintry days
C. Good relations between humans and bugs D. Why do bugs invade your home in winter?

PART FOUR WRITING (45 marks) SECTION A (10 marks)
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill the numbered blanks by using the information from
the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Millions of people from all over the world use the Internet to communicate, get information and play games. However, using Internet can have both positive and negative effects on young people.
As for positive effects, children can use it for searching useful articles and materials. Also they can do their homework on computer instead of writing down.
The Internet gives children possibilities to learn about new things in life, and discover how people live all over the world. Children can communicate with their friends and relatives who live far away. In addition, they can make friends and talk with people in foreign countries.
However, there is much information that can be dangerous to children and damage their development. When children surf the internet, they can easily be tempted into something that is not proper. When kids start communicate with strangers online, they don?t know that they can be talking to a sick or a harmful person and may meet the person later. Another thing is that many children play only games rather than learn online. Too much sitting before the computer can be unhealthy and result in stress injuries, obesity and social isolation.
Parents have a big responsibility to guide and guard their children and set clear boundaries to what kids do. Parents can reduce the risks for their children by setting sensible rules and knowing what their children are interested in.
