He created the Uncle Milton Ant Farm more than half a century ago. Today, grandchildren of the first ant colony owners are watching ants working hard on the farm.Milton Levine was not trained in the study of insects, also known as entomology. But he knew a lot about ants, and he designed an appealing way to share his knowledge. Mr Levine began his career as a maker of unusual toys after World War Ⅱ. He had returned to his birthplace in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania，after serving in the United States military.He got the idea for his future career from a business newsletter, which suggested that the best chances for jobs at the time were in toys. He decided to make toys. They understood that American society was about to change. The huge population increase known as the Baby Boom was beginning. There would be a huge demand for children's toys. One day, he saw ants parading around a swimming pool.The sight made Mr Levine remember how much he had liked watching ants as a boy on his uncle's farm. Those thoughts gave him the idea for the Uncle Milton Ant Farm. Milton Levine developed a narrow, green plastic container. The top looked like a farm, showing a farmhouse, a barn, a bridge and a windmill(风车)．Under those images was a divider that separated the ants' underground and aboveground areas.Under that was the sand where people could watch the ants digging passageways. The first Uncle Milton Ant Farms were an immediate success.They were sold in 1956.Two years later，two million of the educational toys had been sold. Through the years the toys continued to attract antwatchers. People buy Uncle Milton Ant Farms from stores and order from websites. During his life, Mr Levine saw the sale of more than twenty million of his ant colonies. The Uncle Milton Ant Farm tells far more than how to care for the ants. For example, people receiving an Uncle Milton Ant Farm learn that the little insects are strong. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 Some can carry loads fifty times heavier than they are. A writer remembers owning an Uncle Milton Ant Farm when he was about five years old.He says he became very good at numbers by counting the ants. 16．Which of the following words can best describe Milton Levine? A．Strong. B．Creative. C．Loyal. D．Humorous. 17．________ may be studied in the science of entomology. A．Roses B．Butterflies C．Tigers D．Sharks 18．Milton Levine got his idea from the following EXCEPT ________． A．a business newsletter B．the Baby Boom C．ants parading D．a farmhouse 19．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A．How to care for the ants. B．Ants are strong and diligent. C．The Uncle Milton Ant Farm is more than a toy. D．The Uncle Milton Ant Farm is very popular. B At a physics conference dinner with my husband Alex, I sat next to a man I'll call Clayton. Clayton kept talking about himself all through the entire conversation: he had solved problems no one else could; only his views were right; other researchers' work was inaccurate or unimportant. I could not put in a word. Extremely annoyed, I planned to avoid Clayton in that future. In fact, I decided never to have another conversation with him. A few days later I was in an education class. Our professor explained how one child could become the target of the other students' ridicule(讥笑)． “ Usually it's because the class sees their own weaknesses glaringly magnified(放大) in that student. They don't want to admit they have the same weakness, 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 so they ridicule and exclude the student. The behavior of both the class and the excluded student is caused by personal insecurity.” As I took notes, suddenly I thought of Clayton. It struck me that I have many of the same faults. How easily I rule a conversation and leave others out. I, too, sometimes feel that only my opinion is right. My concerns or work easily seems most important. As my professor had described, I reacted negatively to someone in whom I experienced my own weakness. I changed my mind. Instead of avoiding Clayton, I'll try to listen patiently with the same kindness and acceptance that I need. 20．The writer was extremely annoyed with Clayton partly because ________． A．he said not all his views were right B．he wouldn't let her put in a word C．he kept silent all through the dinner D．he was too particular about the food 21．Who said the words in Paragraph 3? A．Clayton. B．The writer's husband. C．The writer. D．The writer's professor. 22．The fourth paragraph was written to show ________． A．why the writer changed her mind B．how the writer was annoyed C．when the writer had her education D．what weakness the writer had 23．We can infer from the last paragraph that ________． A．the writer will see other people more positively B．Clayton will not rule a conversation any longer C．the writer will try to avoid talking with Clayton D．Clayton will find out he has his own weakness Ⅲ.短文填词 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 6 On the one hand, the robots sent to the planets have not yet found any 24.________ (迹象) of life on Mars, but they have found evidence that water 25.________ freely over the planet's surface millions of years ago. 26.________ addition, water in the form of ice exists below some 27.p________ of the Martian surface today.
