Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Some insects imitate other insects or creatures. If a harmless insect looks like a harmful insect or creature, predators stay away. Result: The insect escapes being eaten, and so it survives.This works the other way, too. A harmful insect can look like a harmless one and surprise its prey. Result: The harmful insect gets food to eat, and so it survives.Some insects have coloring or patterns that enable them to mix well with a background. This is called camouflage(伪装). It helps an insect to look like other things around it. That way it is hard for other insects or creatures to see the insect. You must look very carefully to find a camouflaged insect. A camouflaged insect seems to be almost invisible.Camouflage can be helpful in two ways. A camouflaged predator can surprise the insect that it is hunting for food. Or a camouflaged prey becomes almost invisible, and its predator will not see it and attack it.Some insects look like other things in nature, such as twigs(树枝)or leaves. This appearance is called a disguise(掩饰). For a disguise to work, the insect stays very still for hours at a time.There are many more insects that have such adaptations. Some insects look like dead leaves, tree bark (the outer covering of a tree), beautiful flowers,or something else in nature. These disguises are critical to their survival.

Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Jerry was a unique restaurant manager. He was the kind of guy you love to hate. He was always in a good mood and always had something positive to say. If an employee was having a bad day, Jerry was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.Jerry once said to me, "Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the useless things, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good or bad mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how you live life".Later I quit working for Jerry and started my own business. We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it. Recently, I heard that Jerry was shot in his restaurant by three robbers and was severely wounded. He was immediately rushed to the local hospital. After an 18-hour medical operation and weeks of intensive care, Jerry eventually survived. When we met, I asked him what had gone through his mind as the robbery took place."The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door,"Jerry replied."Then, as I lay on the floor, I remembered I had two choices: to live, or to die. I chose to live. When they wheeled me into the emergency room(急诊室) and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read, 'He's a dead man'. I knew I needed to take action.""What did you do then?" I asked."Well, there was a big nurse shouting questions at me, "said Jerry. " She asked if I was allergic(过敏的) to anything.‘Yes,'Isid. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and cried out,‘Bullets (子弹)!’While they were laughing, I told them, ‘I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead. '"Jerry lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his healthy attitude. I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully.
