These are the roles moms and dads fall into when they become parents and its common among all cultures. But times change and parents roles seem to be changing, too. More women are bringing home food by having full-time jobs and men are taking care of their children at home.Chinese TV show Where Are We Going, Dad ? provides a closer look at the changing roles of dads in modern family life. The show follows the adventures（冒险经历）of five celebrity（明星）dads who take trips with their young children (aged 4 to 6) and try to complete a set of tasks.

There were many different kinds of dinosaurs and a number of them used to live in China. The eggs of twenty-five species (种类) have been found in Xixia County, Nanyang, Henan Province. Not long ago a rare new species of bird-like dinosaur was discovered in Chaoyang County, Liaoning Province. When scientists inspected the bones, they were surprised to find that these dinosaurs could not only run like the others but also climb trees. They learned this from the way the bones were joined togetherDinosaurs died out suddenly about 65 million years ago.

His work for the day was almost finished. His bag, usually quite heavy when he set out on his road, was empty now except for the letter that he had to deliver(递送) to Mrs Dunley. She lived over a mile from that village so that, when Bill had a letter for her, he always finished his days work much later. He did not mind this, however, because she never failed to ask him in for a cup of tea.When Bill entered the gate of Mrs Dunleys house, he was surprised not to find her working in the garden. She usually spent most afternoons there when the weather was fine. Bill went straight round to the back of the house, thinking that she might be in the kitchen. The door was locked and the curtains were drawn. He returned to the front of the house and knocked hard on the door. There was no answer. Bill thought that this was very strange because he knew that Mrs Dunley hardly left the house.Just then, he noticed that her bottle of milk, which was delivered early in the morning, was still on the doorstep. This worried him. If Mrs Dunley had not taken in her milk, perhaps she was ill. Bill walked round the house until he found an open window. He squeezed(挤) through it. Then he went into the hall. There he almost fell over Mrs Dunley, who was lying at the foot of the stairs unconscious(昏迷不醒的).

This summer, Chinese sports fans will be able to watch the exciting games in 3-D on CCTV.When you watch 3-D movies or TV, you have to wear a special pair of glasses. The 3-D glasses make the people and the things on the screen look like they are in the room with you.3-D, means having three dimensions: width, height and depth. 3-D technology is based on the way the human brain and eye work. Because the pupils of a persons eyes are about 6.5 cm apart, when we look at something, each eye sees it from different angle. Our eyes send the two pictures to our brain, and the brain puts them together. The small difference between the picture from the right eye and the picture from the left eye make us see depth.While watching 2-D films, we dont have to wear the special glasses. We see the pictures in two dimensions, each eye get the same information. This is because there is only one way of watching it.So the aim of 3-D technology is to get a different picture into each eye of the person. It uses two film projectors. One projects a left eye picture and the other projects a right eye picture. When we are in the cinema, we can see different pictures in each eye at the same time with the help of the 3-D glasses.While watching 3-D films, we feel that we are actually in the same environment as the things we are watching. However, some people are against watching 3-D films. One of the reasons is the 3-D glasses makes the screen of the film or TV look darker. It is bad for eyes. Whats more, people with eye problems may get headaches if they spend too much time watching 3-D movies, because their brains need to work harder to “read” the pictures.（1）Paragraph 3 mainly tells us _.A . how we see things in 3-DB . how we watch the Olympic GamesC . how 3-D films are madeD . where we watch 3-D films or TV（2）When we watch a 2-D film, each of our eyes get _ information.A . noB . differentC . darkD . the same（3）Which is the following is right according to the passage?A .

All the people can have fun watching 3-D movies or TV for a long time.D . 3-D glasses make us see different pictures in each eye at the same time.（4）Why are some people against watching 3-D films? Because _.A . they make them more excited or sadderB . 3-D glasses make the screen look darkerC . 3-D films make all people get headachesD . they dislike watching the Olympic Games6. （8分）请阅读下表，找出小题中正确的一个选项。（1）_ hope to be businessmen because they want to be rich.
